I guess one is just like, how do you think about designers shipping code?

Is that like just do it if you can, or is there like a requirement sort of thing?

And broadly, I'm just curious how AI is changing the way your team operates.

What are just like a few things that have been impactful in how your team operates that are AI driven?

OK, I want to take a step back and think about just kind of reflect back.

It's been 15 years since you've been working on Snap.

You launched about 15 years ago.

I'm curious just what are some of the maybe biggest lessons, maybe the hardest lessons you've learned over the past 15 years?

Things that you're like, oh, I didn't realize this as I was starting this company.

How have you most changed and I guess evolved over that course?

What's like a big area that you've improved in?

For founders that are hearing this and are like, OK, I'm going to work on this.

What most helped you level up in this space?

Is it like coaches?

Is it people around you?

Is it just doing it?

I had Rahul Vohra on the podcast a while back, the founder of Superhuman.

And he went through a similar, I don't know if this is what you went through, but he went through a transition where he loved what he was doing and then ended up being pushed by VCs and leaders to like, okay, you got to do these other things.

And then like, okay, I really don't like this and I'm going to find a way to do the thing I really enjoy because that's going to reflect in so many ways across the business and help us succeed.

Is that something you went through or just like, okay, I just want to get back to the product and building?
