๐Ÿšจ BREAKING: Apple released its new headset, Vision Pro.

The 12 things you need to know ๐Ÿ‘‡

#WWDC23
1. It's the first Apple product you look through and not at.

It's Augmented Reality (AR) + Virtual Reality (VR).
2. It's the beginning of spatial computing.

The interface looks and feels truly present in your room. They respond dynamically to light and cast shadows.
3. It relies solely on your eyes, hands and voice.

There's no controller. You browse the system simply by looking.
4. You can get fully immersed.

If you want, you can go to full virtual reality (VR).
5. It's supported by major apps at work.

Notes, Keynote, Safari, and Messages are all customized for Vision Pro. Imagine replacing all your monitors with this.
6. It's built for multi-tasking.

People can continue working with you while you're on Vision Pro.
7. It integrates with keyboard and mouse.

So you can keep writing and doing other work tasks.
8. It's great for working remote and traveling.

Who minds if you have a headset on at home?
9. You can create a cinema environment.

You can turn any room into your own personal movie theater. Even on an airplane.
10. You can watch 3D movies.

It feels like you're looking right into the movie itself.
11. It does have game controller support.

You can use your PS5 controller if that's to play AAA games like NBA 2K.
12. It authenticates you with Optic ID

It uses the image on your Iris to make sure it's you.
I'll let Tim sign us off:

This is just the beginning.

(But it will cost you $3499.)

Weโ€™ve been sold a million use cases for PMs to use AI.

For my money, here are the top 5: Image
AI wonโ€™t replace PMs.

But PMs who use AI will replace PMs who donโ€™t.

You donโ€™t even need to learn coding to join the AI revolution.

Thereโ€™s one archetype taking over in organizations right now: the AI-powered PM.

Here are the top 5 ways AI-powered PMs are changing the game: Image
USE CASE ONE - PRDs

Last month, I shadowed a PM at a FAANG company.

Their first AI prompt? Beautiful but completely wrong.

So how you use it matter more than just using it to write PRDs.

Hereโ€™s the game-changing mega-prompt that fixed it:

Used right, OKRs can be the most powerful product process.

But most orgs completely mess them up.

From driving empowerment to becoming tools for controlโ€ฆ

Hereโ€™s what you need to know about when to add or remove OKRs: Image

The conversation around OKRs reveals a fundamental truth:

Alignment mechanisms arenโ€™t one-size-fits-all.

Take Ramp, for example.

They built a $10B company without OKRs.
Their secret?

โ†’ Exceptional product sense.

โ†’ Metrics so clear that every team understood what success looked like without needing a formal framework.

Now look at Google.

If you want to move from a PM to a product leader, thereโ€™s one skill you absolutely need to master:

Product processes.

Here are the 12 most essential ones to drive impact, speed, and quality: Image
๐—ข๐—ก๐—˜ - ๐—ข๐—ž๐—ฅ๐˜€

โ†’ When to Add: When your team is growing fast, shifting priorities, or you need a system to track progress across teams.

โ†’ When to Drop: If OKRs become a never-ending admin task and feel disconnected from day-to-day work, itโ€™s time to simplify.

โ†’ When to Introduce: Use them to coach junior PMs or align teams during fast-paced iterations.

โ†’ When to Cut Back: If Product Reviews start stifling creativity or become a micromanagement, itโ€™s time to rethink.

One thing that will remain the same in the 2025 job landscape:

Hiring managers will still ask, "Why this company?"

Nail it, and youโ€™re halfway to landing your dream role.

Hereโ€™s how to master this: Image
Over the years, Iโ€™ve worked with countless aspiring and senior PMs.

99% of them give a 4/10 answer.

Hereโ€™s where they go wrong:

1. Generic fluff โ†’ They rattle off buzzwords like โ€œinnovative cultureโ€ or โ€œmarket leader.โ€ Itโ€™s uninspired.
2. No connection โ†’ They talk about the company, but not how they fit into the picture.

3. Vague details โ†’ Itโ€™s clear they didnโ€™t research. No examples, no depth. Just surface-level compliments.

4. Lack of energy โ†’ The delivery feels more like a verbal LinkedIn endorsement.

How do the best product teams ship better and faster without things breaking?

They embed quality into every step of the development process.

Hereโ€™s how you can do the same: Image

โ†’ When: Right after youโ€™ve done your research and before locking down specs.
โ†’ Why it matters: This is your chance to clarify any confusion, resolve technical risks, and ensure alignment before things snowball.

โ†’ Win: Fewer mid-sprint surprises and last-minute changes.

PMs, you can add at least $50k to your salary by becoming an AI PM.

However, many people miss the mark, making the same mistakes over and over again.

Here are the 7 mistakes to avoid if you want to secure your dream AI role: Image

โ†’ Collecting certificates may feel productive, but itโ€™s often just an illusion of progress.

โ†’ Instead of paper chasing, identify a problem, build a prototype, and document your process.

โ†’ Coding helps you to connect with your dev team and independently prototype ideas.

โ†’ Start with Python, build simple models, and soon enough, coding will become your new best friend.
