The episode features Lisa Huang discussing the innovative use of AI in product management and her experiences in building AI projects.

Today’s episode Most PMs are using AI the same way they used Google in 2005. Type something in. Get something out. Move on. That is not how the best PMs are using it. The best PMs have stopped treating AI as a search engine and started treating it as a team member. One that already knows their product, their writing style, their strategy. One that does not need to be briefed from scratch every single time. That shift is what today’s episode is about. I sat down with Lisa Huang, SVP of Product at Xero, an $18 billion finance platform. She built the AI assistant for the first generation Meta RayBan smart glasses. She created Gemini Gems at Google. She has been an AI PM at Apple, Meta, and Google - three of the most demanding AI product environments in the world. She gave us a masterclass across Gemini Gems, building AI into hardware, running AI agents at scale inside a financial product, and what the AI PM career actually looks like from here.
