Likewise I bought the Chromebook Pixel LS and a Pixelbook during that dark period before M-series laptops and these laptops were awesome and IMO well ahead of their time. The ChromeOS with all its faults was a modern OS without legacy. For

It is painful to read. To me in retrospective the major mistake in the presentation is that it barely talks about end users and how the iPhone enabled a new world of use cases. It is only about business/corporate, features and specs. W

This is a very bad article, probably to attract traffic to their PM course. For me is very simple, there are AI Product Managers. But those are not PMS that use AI tools but rather those that manage AI products. And there is a difference be
