Product Fundamentals in the Age of AI Agents
Product Fundamentals in the Age of AI Agents
 ### Peter Yang@petergyang
"When execution is so fast, understanding what you're doing becomes more important. You can go in the wrong direction so quickly."
I love this reminder from @karrisaarinen (CEO @Linear). It's easy to spin up 10 agents to go in 10 directions. But the fundamentals matter more now than ever:
→ Who are you building for?
→ What problem are you solving?
→ What's your product vision?
To build something valuable, both your human and agent teams need a shared understanding of the above.Show More
