No AI prototyping tool as far as I know has figured out how to create prototypes that consistently match a company's design system.

Thanks to AI, I’m feeling more productive than ever coding as a PM.
But for some reason, engineers won’t accept the 3,000 line PR that Claude and I vibe coded.

I see many interviewers post threads saying that candidates are using AI behind the scenes.
Radical take:
What if interviews required candidates to share their screen and show how they're using AI?

Fascinating inside look at OpenAI’s shipping culture:

ChatGPT helped someone figure out a 10+ year medical problem.
