@shreyas I loved your post today so much. Sent an email but also posting here in case its easier
I'm a new(ish) parent and I'm struggling with the fact that my time is no longer my own. I can no longer be selfish and work on work or random side projects. My personal time has shrunk but my ambitions have not. I believe you're a parent too, did you deal with this? In hindsight, what advice would you give someone going through it right now?

Building the *right* thing matters more than ever. It needs to be grounded in what your users care about.
Building 10x more features can easily be 10x more noise if you don't have a coherent product perspective of what your product is, who its users are, what your unique value prop is
Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly.

This is a bit of hot take - but I think people managers will actually thrive if they are willing to get their hands dirty. The good ones are already comfortable with: 1) dictating outcomes, not actions, 2) handling non deterministic outputs, and 3) good at giving very specific feedback

"I don't think people managers will have any value in the future."
Airbnb CEO said on a recent pod the people most screwed by AI will be people managers.
Perhaps we had this all wrong. The future belongs to ICs. There is now more use for them than ever before.
