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.
Lovable Dev just launched Lovable Cloud & AI, a full-stack platform that empowers anyone to build complex AI-driven apps and backends purely through prompting, fueling over 100,000 new ideas, tools, and sites every day. In related news, OpenAI rolled out Instant Checkout in ChatGPT with integrations for Etsy and Shopify, and open-sourced the Agentic Commerce Protocol so merchants and developers can embed seamless AI-powered transactions. Meanwhile, Claude AI released Claude Sonnet 4.5, its most capable model yet for coding, reasoning, and agent-building with significant improvements in math, now available on the Claude Developer Platform, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud’s Vertex AI.
On the tools front, Cursor expanded its preview to let AI agents control your browser—taking screenshots, refining UI, and debugging client issues—powered by Sonnet 4.5. Separately, Alibaba Qwen introduced Qwen-Image-Edit-2509, a model designed for architectural visualization that delivers smooth style transfers, from traditional Chinese patterns to photorealistic city renders. And Mustafa Suleyman’s Copilot Labs is experimenting with Copilot Portrait, animated face-driven voice interfaces now available to a limited audience in the US, UK, and Canada to study user comfort in AI conversations.
Shifting to product strategy, Lenny Rachitsky highlighted Nesrine Changuel’s successes at Google, Spotify, and Skype, showing how small delightful features can significantly boost adoption in saturated markets. Additionally, Claire Vo pointed out that focusing on JSON-based prototyping during discovery yields more predictable, testable AI workflows than free-form prompts. Building on that, on the “How I AI” podcast, Ravi Mehta from Tinder demonstrated data-driven prototyping by first generating a detailed JSON itinerary schema—complete with real image URLs via a Claude-powered Unsplash connector—and then crafting professional MidJourney images using prompts that define subject, setting, and style through film stock and camera metadata.
Turning to industry developments, DeepLearningAI warned about rising geopolitical risks in chip design as tension between China, the US, and Taiwan threatens AI supply chains. At the same time, Google launched the Agent Payments Protocol, an open standard enabling LLM-based agents to initiate, authorize, and settle payments—via cards, bank transfers, wallets, or crypto—with cryptographic security. In other news, Logan Kilpatrick confirmed full mitigation of the recent Gemini API outage and promised a detailed post-mortem to prevent future downtime.
On the developer automation front, Fireship released a guide on n8n, the open-source self-hostable alternative to Zapier. The tutorial walks through deploying a production-ready server on a $5-per-month Hostinger VPS and building workflows that combine Telegram triggers, conditional logic, API calls, AI-generated content, and logging. Capturing the venture pulse, Greg Isenberg spent three days in San Francisco’s AI gold rush—visiting Cluey, Stripe HQ, A16Z, and the HF0 founders residency—discovering how Cluey hit $5 million ARR in three months with a context-aware AI interface, and how Andreessen Horowitz is investing across AI, infrastructure, bio, crypto, games, and pre-seed deals through its Speedrun program.
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!
