AI Native Products

Over the last few months, I have thought about what makes a product AI native. This is a work in progress; I will update this post as I think more about it. I believe AI native products are not ones built with AI at their core, but rather, they:

  1. Employ units of (varying) Intelligence
  2. Have feedback loops to iteratively improve the units of intelligence
  3. Have UXs that give the user a preview of the intelligence at work instead of showing progress bars and spinners
  4. Are built using AI tools and are not just AI tools
  5. Focus on empowering the AI with tools that can be used to solve complex user needs instead of assuming workflows or processes

Find me elsewhere on Twitter/X, Farcaster, and Github. I don't use LinkedIn much and emailing the hello@ alias on this domain is the best way to get in touch.
