What Ian Silber actually said

  1. Ian Silber Designer who led product design at OpenAI
    in some ways that I think nothing has changed as far as like what a great designer is. Our team I think does a lot of this is just thinking really deeply about like, what problem are we trying to solve? Who are we building this for? And let's try a bunch of different ideas and like, how do you kind of like converge on on an idea? And then of course craft and taste and you know, understanding of interaction patterns and and all of that. Like none of that has changed and I think is just as important
