Just finished the latest @scottbelsky piece on the future of interfaces. We're at a thrilling transition phase, and I'm fascinated by what the next frontier might be. Some notes I took... implications.com/p/disruptive-i…
if creativity is world’s greatest recycling program, then taste is a function of what we expose ourselves to - our inputs. interesting to learn how carefully steve jobs seemed to curate his inputs.

perhaps the ultimate superpower for leading a project or company at scale: having a compass for what REALLY matters (amidst a cacophony of industry noise, FOMO, sunk costs, temptations to satisfy people at expense of strategy) and allocating resources and minutes accordingly.
am pretty excited about the era of AI agents, but their potential to do things for us is limited by the permission they have to act on our behalf. to solve this, @dgmason + @AnonPlatform team built a toolkit for user-permissioned integrations for sites/services of all kinds.

nail it, then scale it. trying to build for scale before it’s nailed is bound to fail.
Disruptive Interfaces & The Rise of Luxury Software: “Disruptive interfaces … are a generation of drastically simpler and more accessible interfaces that ultimately commoditize everything underneath…” @scottbelsky implications.com/p/disruptive-i…
observed: the VCs I respect spend most of their time helping their companies that are struggling (or in specific areas of opportunity). while less strong investors try to make the most change and incessantly “help” the thriving companies and founders that need it the least. 🤷♂️
Kevin Kelly (co-founder of WIRED Magazine) insists a good "rest ethic" is essential for counterbalancing a good work ethic.
I like the idea of: accepting (and even encouraging) discussion and debate of ideas that make you feel uncomfortable …becoming a value of the modern school and workplace.

Software is considered either a complement to hardware, or a problem solver. Why is luxury software a new vector? Where will we see luxury software transform markets? How will role of designers evolve from “interface builders” to “software artists?” implications.com/p/disruptive-i…
been super fun to watch @eglyman @diegozaks and team build the product and the brand/soul of the company since early days. congrats on the growth and the focus. 💥

cool to see what creators are making with the brand new @AdobeExpress mobile app today, which includes all the latest magic from Firefly AI. team just rolled it out on the app stores - it’s awesome.
“The Era of Luxury Software” - great post by @scottbelsky I sound like a broken record, but brand matters 😎 implications.com/p/disruptive-i…

AI hardware should be priced as entirely a subscription. Include the hardware for free, charge monthly fee. Ship software updates weekly. Customers will get value or churn; businesses become customer obsessed. First startup w courage to go full subscription will win the market.

So much for “peaceful protests” at Columbia University. Violence is not a bug but a feature of the pro-Hamas encampment movement, which has a deep rot of Anti-Americanism and AntiSemitism at its core.

Some personal news: I’ve joined the @messenger team at @Meta as a Director of Product. Messaging has transformed how we connect with friends, family, creators, businesses, and now even AI. Thrilled to work with an incredible team focused on 0-1 initiatives within the app!
On top of their sales-led motion, the team decided to make their product self-served and to lean into Product-Led Growth (PLG) "With a refined product and sales strategy, we began targeting smaller companies with high organic growth, shifting back to a product-led growth model"
