I’m having a hard time moving with the new pace and developments in the world.

While AI is semi-interesting, I worry about the long term existential risks to humanity with respect to losing agency, reasoning ability, humanness and creativity - similar to what has happened to our attention and mental health with social media.

I’m usually quite fiscally conservative, pro technology, start-ups but in this case, I’m worried I’ve reached my “event horizon” technically speaking, but I’m barely halfway into my career.

I can see how AI can be influential I just can’t seem to get on the train technically — it just doesn’t interest me. It feels like it’s just slop ontop of slop.

Yet, it feels like we’re reaching this “sink or swim” moment, similar to what Tobi from Shopify put out in his blog.

Any advice here?

Surely many users would appreciate nostalgia features—especially if the OS vendor handled all the legal and copyright clearances.

Over the past two years, I’ve developed a toolkit for helping dozens of clients improve their LLM-powered products, which I'm now open-sourcing.

First up: a library to bring product analytics to conversational AI.

One of the biggest challenges I see clients face is understanding how their assistants are performing in production. Evals are great for catching regressions, but they can’t surface the blind spots in your AI’s behavior.

This gets even more challenging for conversational AI products that don’t have a single “correct” answer. Different users cohorts want different experiences. That makes measurement tricky.

Coming from a product analytics background, my default instinct is always: “instrument the product!” However, tracking generic events like user_sent_message doesn’t tell you much.

What you really want are insights like:

- How frequently do users request to speak with a human when interacting with a customer support agent? - Which user journeys trigger self-reflection during a session with an AI therapist?

- What percentage of the time does an AI tutor's explanation leave the student confused?

This new library enables these types of insights through the following workflow:

Analyzes your conversation transcripts

Auto-generates a rich event schema

Tags each message with relevant events and event properties

Sends the events to your analytics tool (currently supports Amplitude and PostHog)

Any thoughts or feedback would be greatly appreciated!
