What we discussed

An episode about how AI tools are bringing product management and ML engineering closer together. Guest: Albina Munirova, a product lead at T-Bank's AI Center.

The discussion unpacks the formula PRD == evals: turning product intent into repeatable checks, a release threshold, and metrics, then refreshing them with new failures observed in production.

The central conclusion is that rapid prototyping expands a product manager's ownership, while production AI still requires data and integration engineering, security, and a clear owner for probabilistic system quality.
