Taking Design Futures at @thenewschool.bsky.social starting this week, and I’ve been patiently waiting for it to start since June. Really excited to grow this skillset.
My hidden talent is I make the best bbq ribs of probably anyone you know.
This week writing about the importance of designing context as a part of multi-agent product experiences.
One thing I love about using ChatGPT currently is switching between the default mode and agent mode. I love having it go into agent mode for more in depth research, and switching back to regular mode when I have a specific question or need it to do something with that research.
One thing about me, if someone compliments my work in terms of quality, rigor, etc, I will be deep in the best of my feelings for the rest of the day.
Last week I found out I was nominated for the Mayfield | Divot AI List on my way back from a panel at Startup Boston Week. 🎉
I remember wishing for moments like this when I first started learning about AI in 2017.
I listened to part of this mom's testimony today. Her son started isolating and cutting himself after chatting with companions on Character .ai.
She shared that the company offered her like $100 during arbitration. $100!! 😠
Every day I think to myself how fortunate I am to do what I love. The things I am building now, I used to dream about in 2017. And I sometimes rundown my to do list and I’m like, wow, I used to wish for this with all my heart.
It’s so so so so so good!
One of my top life skills is planning surprises for peoples’ birthdays.
Some pictures from Startup Boston Week today on the panel AI at the Helm: Prototyping Smarter as a Product Manager

I was out and about the other day, and one of those bikes that tourists ride in the back of was blasting soda pop.
Excited to be speaking at Startup Boston Week on Sept 10 on the panel AI at the Helm: Prototyping Smarter as a Product Manager.
Going to talk about what’s actually valuable in AI prototyping, what is hype, and what not to do.

When faced with a large initiative w/a ton of ambiguity and unclear POV, I tend to write a UX Brief as a way to put down the initial experiential goals, approaches, behavioral hypotheses, known constraints that presumably will drive the biz goals. It is kind of a straw man to shape the UX POC.
Every application of these tools deployed against incarcerated people has some analogue in the spaces where people adopt these technologies willingly or in our ostensibly free society.
This is not coincidental.
“Ghassemi and her MIT colleagues found that AI systems were more likely to leave female patients untreated.”
I admire your problem solving approaches and sense of how to experiment and find a core thread running through the problem.
BREAKING: Big moment as CDC staff stage a mass walkout.
They have lined the street outside its HQ to greet and salute the four top officials who have resigned in protest at RFK Jr’s attack on the agency’s science base.
