  Their words

  but that's my guess on what most of the useful progress uh from these models will look like like in the next five years is just really filling in that landscape of like connections that you can draw if you're an expert in multiple fields.

  AI prototyping ends the era of product managers asking designers to draw an idea, which frees designers for deeper work and lets anyone join the first conversation.

  Their words

  PMs are no longer saying to the designer, hey, can you draw this thing out for me?

  Assuming you are a typical observer in the universe is not humility but a hilariously presumptuous claim that typical observers are like you.

  Their words

  But then you draw some conclusions from this, and what you end up realizing is you’ve been hilariously presumptuous because by saying, “I’m a typical observer in the universe,” you’re saying, “Typical observers in the universe are like me,” and that is completely unjustified by anything.
