The AI, Design, & Product Podcast is your front-row seat to how AI is reshaping the way we build products. Each episode dives into the real shifts happening across UX, product, and startups, from why the prompt box is already a broken interface, to how AI-native workflows are replacing traditional design toolchains, to what the next generation of hybrid designer/PM/engineer roles actually looks like. Mark sits down with sharp voices like Dan Saffer, Barry O'Reilly (Nobody Studios), Luke Wroblewski, and Akshay Kore to cut through the hype and surface the playbooks, mindsets, and strategic shifts product people need to thrive in an AI-powered world. If you're a designer, researcher, PM, or founder trying to figure out what to build, what to unlearn, and where the real opportunities are over the next 3–5 years, this is the conversation you'll want in your feed.
