We're shipping a ton of upgrades to Dash, our ai-powered universal search and productivity tool for teams. I'm most excited about our media search and new suped-up search bar that lets you get started on anything you need - all from one spot. And we're just getting started.
We just rolled out our Spring ’25 release with some big updates to Dropbox Dash, our AI search and knowledge management product. Here’s what’s new: 📷 Search across video, audio, and images — no more digging for cryptic file names. You can even use Dash to search for people you…
Thanks for having me, Peter! It was fun to talk about AI, Dash, and the future of PM. If you’re interested in my Product Murder Board prompt, lmk as a comment and I’ll let you know when I share it out soon.
"I have prompts to simulate every exec I meet with so I can anticipate their questions." Here's my new episode with @morganb (VP AI at @Dropbox) where he shared his: - Top 3 AI workflows for PM work - AI product to save workers 160 hours a year - Top lessons from Drew…
Awesome to see CarbScan featured by Lenny along with other great apps. I hope I can make a small difference for families like ours whose meals revolve around carb counting to manage #T1D
50+ examples of what non-technical people are vibe-coding (and actually regularly using), to inspire your own vibe-coding journey 1. Carb counter by @morganb (using Replit) “I built CarbScan to help manage my son’s diabetes and blood glucose levels with faster carb counting. I…
Feels relevant today.
The most entertaining outcome is the most likely
Bad AI products come from teams who don’t use AI. Good ones come from teams who feel the friction, fight through the flaws, and keep building. You don’t design this stuff. You uncover it by living with it. By using AI daily and figuring out how to make it work right.
Good ideas don't require proof of success, just an ability to articulate why the world is already moving toward them (even if very few people can see it yet).
The fastest way to kill a good idea is to demand proof before belief.
The most powerful use of AI at work won’t be solo. It will be shared. Ben Thompson recently wrote in @stratechery about a compelling use case: how he and his assistant collaborated with a single LLM chat. An example of a shared assistant for team coordination and synthesis. I’ve…
After riffing on some ideas over a coffee, I’m going out on a limb here to say “remains to be seen”, ChatGPT.
The real skill to unlock compounding advantage with AI in your work? Task decomposition. Not vibe coding. Not perfect prompting. It’s how you turn rapid innovation into team leverage, velocity, and output that scales as models improve. AI doesn't replace teams but it does…
Chat memory will not only be an important table stakes feature of chatbots, but it starts to build a moat all these AI chat apps desperately want. Today, users regularly switch from app to app with each new model improvement. But with memory, the switching costs become higher.
ChatGPT memory feels very similar to search. It's very good, underrated to start, eventually people will be very sad when others like (Gemini/AI Studio, Claude) don't have it working similarly. Using Gemini 2.5 pro is nice, but still happiest with ChatGPT by a good margin
There are essentially four forms of leverage per Naval: - capital - people - code - content/media (there are more - like reputation, data, etc.) But AI is going to fully reset resize these relative to one another -- code is going to hyper-accelerate right past the others.
i was in a meeting with one of my best friends yesterday who i have worked with for such a long time (she is amazing) & we were talking about empire building (the corporate one). we realized empire building in the classical sense (bodies = power) is likely going to decay fast.…
Something to chew on this weekend… Steve Jobs once observed that the disease of big companies is their ability to confuse process for content. He warned that organizations eventually favor process because more people excel at process than content creation, leading companies to…
My grandparents bought me my first TRS-80. Sat in my room for hours learning BASIC, becoming fascinated with computers. My mom bought my first x86 machine. Changed my life.
Parents who bought their kids computers in the 80’s and 90’s were the first angel investors in most of the great founders I know. My parents worked overtime for 3 months at taxi driver and maid to afford to buy me a $3k Apple iic. It changed my life.
The Ghibli trend isn't just viral—it is a case study in how to launch AI features with real cultural and product impact. On March 25th, OpenAI launched image generation directly inside ChatGPT. No new tool. No separate workflow. Just upload a photo and prompt. From a user’s…
