Listen "Chris Butler on GenAI in Product Management"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Ben Lorica and Chris Butler, director of product operations for GitHub's Synapse team, chat about the experimentation Chris is doing to incorporate generative AI into the product development process—particularly with the goal of reducing toil for cross-functional teams. It isn’t just automating busywork (although there’s some of that). He and his team have created agents that expose the right information at the right time, use feedback in meetings to develop “straw man” prototypes for the team to react to, and even offer critiques from specific perspectives (a CPO agent?). Very interesting stuff.
