E058: Product flexibility will lead to better outcomes
Whether it's working with engineering teams on story point estimations or managing the feedback from marginalized user bases, good Product Management requires you to be adaptable to the situation and try new things.
Sometimes that's scary. Welcome to corporate life.

E057: Outsourcing your brain to AI is bad, actually
Well, that WAS going to be the title of the episode. What started as a conversation over vibe coding tools and the challenges of paying a corporation who is subsidizing their Generative AI models to help you do your critical thinking quickly got diverted onto benefits fraud, politicians who lie to you, and whether or not Kevin is allowed to break capitalism to fix things. It's a contentious episode our first week back after the hiatus.
It's a heated debate about the relationship between people's perception of benefits fraud, capitalism, and the welfare system. We dig into whether you can or should try to address fraud in social welfare, the role of government in providing benefits, and the challenges of reforming capitalism.

E056: Learning when NOT to build that cool new feature
Sometimes the better answer is to not do anything at all. If you can't prove the value of a feature or that the effort to achieve that value is worth it, saying "no" to the idea is often the best course of action.
We also look at scenarios where Product Managers and Engineers can benefit from being users of their own software, as well as the benefits of having competitors you can "borrow" inspiration from.

E055: Mark Zuckerberg and Meta bend the knee to bigotry
Kevin gets a little spicy in this bleep-filled episode discussing the latest changes to Meta's policies around fact-checking and hate speech. Trans rights are human rights, and bowing to pressure from Trump and Republicans on letting people use slurs and lie to each other poisons the well for the rest of us.
Content warning for difficult discussions of trans rights, vaccines and autism, and a variety of things Meta has now decided aren't worth blocking.

E054: Is Deep Seek’s AI the ultimate disruptor?
Chinese LLM company Deep Seek upended the AI market this week with a new AI model that is comparable to ChatGPT and other AIs but appears to have cost barely $5 million to create.
At one-twentieth the cost of Open AI, Meta, and others' models, it begs the question: what the hell is the US market for AI doing asking for $500 BILLION right now??
Also, we look at Google's quantum computing breakthroughs and debate whether physicists actually know what they're even talking about. A conversation we're both equally capable of handling :)
