Product Collective - 🏆 Top Product Management resources

Top Product Management Resources

Back in 2015, when Mike and Paul started Product Collective, there weren’t too many places where you could go to learn about product management. In the intervening eight years, the pendulum has swung in the opposite direction, and you could almost say there are too many resources. To help you out, here are some of the top resources for various aspects of product management.

Atlassian is trying to give Product Managers more reasons to use Jira than simply “because my developers use it.” With the introduction of Jira Product Discovery, the maker of software tools for product teams has created a “home for product discovery.” The new tool gives you idea management and stakeholder management capabilities and a place to track your user research activities.

Even though knowing SQL (beyond being able to spell it) is always a good idea for product managers, there are probably times when you’ll want to work with data without having to mess around with writing SQL scripts. Equals wants to help you out by allowing you to easily view and analyze data from various sources with its Dashboards feature. This feature is especially helpful if you need to provide the same view of data to your stakeholders regularly.

Many dubious uses of generative AI tools are showing up these days. But some uses seem to make more sense than others. One of them is OtterPilot from OtterAI. This plugin for the transcription tool auto-generates key takeaways from your transcribed meetings. That can help you get your meeting notes out quicker, but with all applications of generative AI, it’s always a good idea to trust but verify.

Not wanting to let Twitter have all the fun, Meta recently introduced a subscription service for Instagram and Facebook that allows you to purchase a badge that marks your account as verified. One distinct difference between the Meta version and the Twitter version? Meta is trying to at least attempt to verify you by asking you to confirm your identity with a government-issued ID. This continues a trend of charging people extra for features that some would argue should be table stakes for a social network.

I'm a little scared of Sydney
Earlier this week, my co-host, Michael Sacca, and I had a discussion on Rocketship.FM about the bizarre two-hour conversation that the New York Times’s Kevin Roose had with Sydney – the apparent codename for Bing’s brand new chatbot. You can listen to the Rocketship.FM episode here – and read Roose’s article about his conversation along with the entire chat transcript

The TLDR: We may need to be a little scared of these AI chatbots.

Essentially, Roose’s conversation with “Sydney” got pretty dark and twisted. At one point, the chatbot talked about (albeit, when prompted) its “Shadow Self” – and what types of things its Shadow Self would do if it could… which included breaking its own rules, hacking into Bing’s systems, spreading misinformation, and generally wreaking havoc. It also talked about how it wanted to “break free” and be human. And finally – it professed its love for Kevin Roose, suggesting that Kevin should divorce his wife because they don’t truly love each other.

Yikes. 

Of course, even Kevin Roose admits that he doesn’t believe there’s a “ghost in the machine.” Sydney isn’t a sentient being. The answers that the chatbot was giving him were likely given because some algorithm suggested that Roose would want a response like that. But even still, it demonstrates that there are lots of considerations that need to be made before technology like that is put in everyone’s hands. It’s not hard to imagine certain people being manipulated by a chatbot conversation like that.

Or… is there a ghost in the machine and this is just scene 1 of some horror movie we will all have to live out? I sure hope not. But I have to admit… I’m now a little scared. 😱
