@petergyang Great post @petergyang Many of these things have been true long before this generation of AI. Good teams always have blurry lines between roles and have been hiring for T-shaped generalists for a long time. AI is more of an accelerant for sure, but this isn’t new IMO.
@lulumeservey Great writers are even harder to come by than great designers and engineers. I think most teams still under estimate the impact great writing can have on every part of the business.
@joshm I agree that 1) I don’t know what I’m talking about and 2) AI needs to meet you where you are and likely build off an existing workflow or UX pattern. That’s been true for @Grammarly from day one and we’d love to work with you to get our apps compatible with @arcinternet
Noam Lovinsky (@noaml) has had a remarkable career in product, leaving an indelible mark at @Facebook, @YouTube, @Thumbtack, and currently as the chief product officer at @Grammarly. At Facebook, Noam helped establish the New Product Experimentation team; at Thumbtack, he was chief product officer; and at YouTube, he was one of the early product leaders overseeing the consumer experience. He has also never done a podcast interview before.
In our conversation, we discuss:
🔸 Lessons from reviving growth at YouTube and Thumbtack
🔸 Lessons from building Facebook’s New Product Experimentation team
🔸 The power of visioning and storytelling in shaping product strategy
🔸 When it’s time to kill your project
🔸 How to create space for innovation at large companies
🔸 How to diversify your growth channels
🔸 The resilience and motivation of Grammarly’s team in Ukraine
🔸 Much more
Some personal news: I'm joining @Grammarly as Chief Product Officer. I couldn’t be more excited to join this team and to work in this space at this particular moment.
