  2. on AI-assisted codingMixedMay 3, 2026· Lenny's Podcast: Product | Career | Growth

    AI-assisted coding has increased software quantity more than software quality or reliability.

  3. on Agent loopsPositiveMay 3, 2026· Lenny's Podcast: Product | Career | Growth

    Product designers should understand and design agent loops rather than merely tweak traditional software styles.
