I love how much better ChatGPT has gotten in just the last few weeks!
It doesn’t just give me a plan anymore. It turns it into an interactive to-do list right in the chat.

Salesforce context, inside @ClaudeAI
Live at @Dreamforce, @AnthropicAI showed what the Claudeforce partnership makes possible:
→ Ask Claude about your Salesforce data
→ Build a command center
→ Build + share Claude-generated artifacts in Slack & Teams
Under the hood: Salesforce context, permissions, data, and actions
Plus 37+ pre-built Sales skills. Zero custom engineering to get started.

I’m making mine feel like Instagram because they hacked content consumption for humans whose attention spans are now approximately 6 seconds 🫠
Working in big tech these days feels like working in a startup with several competitors around except we all have similar resources.
Most teams are not aware of the what other teams are building. There’s hype around new product announcements until the next thing goes live. Every team thinks they can do better than the last one until they get into the weeds… AI is keeping us all on our toes
I learned a lot today!
I'd always thought AI was terrible at design, but after reading today's 🤯 post by @anshuc, I realized I was just doing it wrong.
"AI models are capable of amazing creativity, but that creativity gets stifled. LLMs are trained to be next-token predictors: they look at a sequence of text and predict what typically comes next. Great design is exactly the opposite of this. Great design bends the rules and delights users with memorable, unexpected choices."
@anshuc led design and engineering teams at Apple for 12 years. In his words: "Most people only see 1% of AI's creative potential. I want to show you how to tap into the other 99%."
His 8 techniques for breaking out of the 1%:
1. Use seed strings to inject variety
2. Be much more ambitious with your prompts
3. Create positive feedback loops with subagents
4. Use image generation to enrich designs
5. Use video generation
6. Cut out elements that don’t add value
7. Remove AI tells
8. Rewrite copy by hand

P.S. This design was made by AI 👇
Last month we shipped the new APIs for the RAG workflows. It took us more than 6 months to build a system that is
- fast and reliable
- transparent with statuses
- resilient with controls to fix failures
- flexible to work with any AI tool
This morning I saw a solution engineer build a UI using these APIs that worked best for their use case! Being a product designer is so much more than the UI details!
4 years as a busy working professional! It's a good day to reflect. Here are 6 things I've picked up:
1. Work is like school. There's a park (atleast at Salesforce) there's an unassigned seating situation, and you get along with only some of your classmates and teachers — and that's okay. Weekends are still 2 days long (sadly).
2. Work is whatever you want it to be. You get some tasks assigned, but you define your ownership. Be curious, share ideas, pretend you know what you're doing — the rest follows.
3. Prioritising is key! There are too many things to prioritise — tasks, battles, feedback, meetings, time off, LLM tokens. It's okay to learn as you go.
4. Make friends who like to lift, run, do fitness stuff. Your own fitness stays on track.
5. Observe people, especially the ones you don't like. They teach you what not to become.
6. Money is yours to spend. Be proud of it :
i love going to design events in sf… today at Meridian open tab 3, saw a very different side of design: raw and deeply creative
Thanks gor hosting @belindahuang
Men I may not know, but shoes... shoes I know✋🏻(iykyk)
dug up an old project to refresh my figma prototyping skills 👟
current learning hack: after every productive session, i ask Claude to explain how the work was done. It turns all the work into a simple explainer.
I also throw in a little, “use my writing style to write these explainers” in the prompt and it uses great real-life analogies to explain things. It can also be funny from time to time!
