Product teams often suffer from a 'perspective problem'. While leadership tracks market trends, teams focus on specific users. To build great products, we must translate between three layers.

This piece on "Shadow IT" and AI coding truly resonates. AI promises democratised programming: the potential for security risks, testing nightmares, and duplicated efforts for product orgs is huge. It's a key challenge we must address. #AI #ProductManagement https://www.allankelly.net/archives/10605/the-shadow-it-hanging-over-ai/

Wildest thing I've read recently: Moltbook, where AI agents debate consciousness, form their own governments, and discuss spiritual matters when humans aren't watching. It's a bizarre, beautiful window into potential AI societies. The future of agent interaction is STRANGE. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/best-of-moltbook #AI #Product

The roadmap spectrum: Red roadmaps expose organisational dysfunction, Blue roadmaps focus on real problems. The Penguin Principle: your roadmap reveals your internal sharks.
