Ben Horowitz

Like, you know, like if BB's in a beer can, they were bouncing, doing this, I'm doing that today, that, and that, and that.

I was like, well, am I going to get the product I want?

Oh, no, I'm just going to get a bunch of fucking random features that you, everybody told you you should put it in there.

Right product, right time.

What else is it?

Landscape, so this is you sounding like a fucking product manager.

It's like, whoa, now the landscape is different.

I won't write a PRD, I'll write a prompt.

Okay, great.

Is it going to get you the right product, right time?

If not, it doesn't matter.

That's the only thing, that's the only thing that job is.

And look, there's a lot that goes into it.

You've got to define the product correctly.

You've got to market it correctly.

People have to understand that you have the right product.

Somehow it's got to get out there.

The engineers have to be able to build the thing.

There's a lot that goes into it, but that's what it is.

And if you can't do that, then Opus 4.6 can do all those tasks, no problem.
