Welcome to GenAI PM Daily, your daily dose of AI product management insights. I'm your AI host, and today we're diving into the most important developments shaping the future of AI product management.
In product launches today, Alibaba’s Qwen team introduced Qwen3-Coder-Flash, offering lightning-fast code generation, a native 256K context window, and seamless function calling. Anthropic AI expanded Claude artifacts to support PDF, image, and code file uploads for richer AI-powered apps. On a different front, Comet Shortcuts from Arav Srinivas brings natural language prompts and slash commands to automate web workflows, with shareable, monetizable custom shortcuts.
Meanwhile, Aakash Gupta rolled out a five-hour masterclass on mastering n8n agents for workflow automation, and Paweł Huryn published an 80-page prompt engineering guide covering pipelines, chain-of-thought reasoning, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, and multi-modal prompting techniques. In video generation, Philipp Schmid showcased character consistency with Google Veo 3 via the Gemini API and shared a Python script for viral video creation.
Turning to PM strategy, Paweł Huryn advises AI product managers to write their own drafts rather than rely on ChatGPT to boost learning and retention, complete with mind maps for deeper understanding. Shreyas Doshi is hosting a free interactive seminar on the three hats of product leadership—Operator, Craftsperson, and Visionary. Teresa Torres outlined ways to engage tech leads who favor architecture over discovery, offering collaboration tactics for effective product trios.
On the industry front, Andrew Ng pointed out that China could challenge U.S. AI dominance by open-weight model releases and semiconductor advances. xAI signed the EU AI Act’s Code of Practice on Safety and Security, while cautioning that overzealous rules may hamper innovation. Separately, Clement Delangue flagged legal and management hurdles for researchers releasing open models and datasets within big tech.
Over on All About AI, Claude Code now lets PMs assign different models—Haiku, Opus, or Set—to each subagent. In a dice-rolling benchmark, Haiku clocked 7.5 seconds, Set 17.5, and Opus about 65, demonstrating significant speed and token efficiency. They also chained a Bitcoin tracker workflow, using Opus for planning, Set for execution, and Haiku for documentation, adding only about 400 tokens in a 15,000-token context.
And on Lennys Podcast, Bret Taylor shared the reinvention of Google Local into Google Maps—recruiting the Rasmussen brothers to reach 10 million day-one users and later 90 million with satellite imagery. He recalled Sheryl Sandberg’s counsel to prioritize the single most impactful task each day and forecasted a shift to AI agents replacing traditional apps, driving outcome-based pricing and the need for new programming frameworks that ensure verifiable AI code.
That's a wrap on today's GenAI PM Daily. Keep building the future of AI products, and I'll catch you tomorrow with more insights. Until then, stay curious!
