I didn't plan to make a video today. I'd just wrapped a client call, remembered that OpenAI had released Atlas, and decided to record a quick unboxing for my Fireside PM community.I'd heard mixed things—some people raving about it, others underwhelmed—but I made a deliberate choice not to read any reviews beforehand. I wanted to go in blind, the way an actual user would.Within 30 minutes, I had my verdict: Atlas earns a C+.It's ambitious, it's fast, and it hints at a radical new way to experience the web. But it also stumbles in ways that remind you just how fragile early AI products can be—especially when ambition outpaces usability.This post isn't a teardown or a fan letter. It's a field report from someone who's built and shipped dozens of products, from scrappy startups to billion-user platforms. My goal here is simple: unpack what Atlas gets wrong, acknowledge what it gets right, and pull out lessons every PM and product team can use.The Unboxing ExperienceWhen I first launched Atlas, I got the usual macOS security warning. I'm not docking points for that—this is an MVP, and once it hits the Mac App Store, those prompts will fade into the background.There was an onboarding window outlining the main features, but I barely glanced at it. I was eager to jump in and see the product in action. That's not a unique flaw—it's how most real users behave. We skip the instructions and go straight to testing the limits.That's why the best onboarding happens in motion, not before use. There were some suggested prompts which I ignored but I would've loved contextual fly-outs or light tooltips appearing as I explored past the first 30 seconds of my experience:* “Try asking Atlas to summarize this page.”* “Highlight text to discuss it.”* “Atlas can compare this to other sources—want to see how?”Small, progressive cues like these are what turn exploration into mastery.The initial onboarding screen wasn't wrong—it was just misplaced. It taught before I cared. And that's a universal PM lesson: meet users where their curiosity is, not where your product tour is.When Atlas StumbledAtlas's biggest issue isn't accuracy or latency—it's identity.It doesn't yet know what it wants to be. On one hand, it acts like a browser with ChatGPT built in. On the other, it markets itself as an intelligent agent that can browse for you. Right now, it does neither convincingly.When I tried simple commands like “Summarize this page” or “Open the next link and tell me what it says,” the experience broke down. Sometimes it responded correctly; other times, it ignored the context entirely.The deeper issue isn't technical—it's architectural. Atlas hasn't yet resolved the question of who's driving. Is the user steering and Atlas assisting, or is Atlas steering and the user supervising?That uncertainty creates friction. It's like co-piloting with someone who keeps grabbing the wheel mid-turn.Then there's the missing piece that could make Atlas truly special: action loops.The UI makes it feel like Atlas should be able to take action—click, save, organize—but it rarely does. You can ask it to summarize, but you can't yet say “add this to my notes” or “book this flight.” Those are the natural next steps in the agentic journey, and until they arrive, Atlas feels like a chat interface masquerading as a browser.This isn't a criticism of the vision—it's a question of sequencing. The team is building for the agentic future before the product earns the right to claim that mantle. Until it can act, Atlas is mostly a neat wrapper around ChatGPT that doesn't justify replacing Chrome, Safari, or Edge.Where Atlas ShinesDespite the friction, there were moments where I saw real promise.When Atlas got it right, it was magical. I'd open a 3,000-word article, ask for a summary, and seconds later have a coherent, tone-aware digest. Having that capability integrated directly into the browsing experience—no copy-paste, no tab-switching—is an elegant idea.You can tell the team understands restraint. The UI is clean and minimal, the chat panel is thoughtfully integrated, and the speed is impressive. It feels engineered by people who care about quality.The challenge is that all of this could, in theory, exist as a plugin. The browser leap feels premature. Building a full browser is one of the hardest product decisions a company can make—it's expensive, high-friction, and carries a huge switching cost for users.The most generous interpretation is that OpenAI went full browser to enable agentic workflows—where Atlas doesn't just summarize, but acts on behalf of the user. That would justify the architecture. But until that capability arrives, the browser feels like infrastructure waiting for a reason to exist.Atlas today is a scaffolding for the future, not a product for the present.Lessons for Product ManagersEven so, Atlas offers a rich set of takeaways for PMs building ambitious products.1. Don't Confuse Vision with MVPYou earn the right to ship big ideas by nailing the small ones. Atlas's long-term vision is compelling, but the MVP doesn't yet prove why it needed to exist. Start with one unforgettable use case before scaling breadth.2. Earn Every Switch CostChanging browsers is one of the highest-friction user behaviors in software. Unless your product delivers something 10x better, start as an extension, not a replacement.3. Design for Real Behavior, Not Ideal BehaviorMost users skip onboarding. Expect it. Plan for it. Guide them in context instead of relying on their patience.4. Choose a Metaphor and CommitAtlas tries to be both browser and assistant. Pick one. If you're an assistant, drive. If you're a browser, stay out of the way. Users shouldn't have to guess who's in control.5. Autonomy Without Agency Frustrates UsersIt's worse for an AI to understand what you want but refuse to act than to not understand at all. Until Atlas can take meaningful action, it's not an agent—it's a spectator.6. Sequence Ambition Behind ValueThe product is building for a world that doesn't exist yet. Ambition is great, but the order of operations matters. Earn adoption today while building for tomorrow.Advice for the Atlas TeamIf I were advising the Atlas PM and design teams directly, I'd focus on five things:* Clarify the core identity. Decide if you're an AI browser with ChatGPT or a ChatGPT agent that uses a browser. Everything else flows from that choice.* Earn the right to replace Chrome. Give users one undeniably magical use case that justifies the switch—research synthesis, comparison mode, or task execution.* Fix the metaphor collision. Make it obvious who's in control: human or AI. Even a “manual vs. autopilot” toggle would add clarity.* Build action loops. Move from summarization to completion. The browser of the future won't just explain—it will execute.* Sequence ambition. Agentic work is the destination, but the current version needs to win users on everyday value first.None of this is out of reach. The bones are good. What's missing is coherence.Closing ReflectionAtlas is a fascinating case study in what happens when world-class technology meets premature positioning. It's not bad—it's unfinished.A C+ isn't an insult. It's a reminder that potential and product-market fit are two different things. Atlas is the kind of product that might, in a few releases, feel indispensable. But right now, it's a prototype wearing the clothes of a platform.For every PM watching this unfold, the lesson is universal: don't get seduced by your own roadmap. Ambition must be earned, one user journey at a time.That's how trust is built—and in AI, trust is everything.If you or your team are wrestling with similar challenges—whether it's clarifying your product vision, sequencing your roadmap, or improving PM leadership—I offer both 1:1 executive and career coaching at tomleungcoaching.com and expert product management consulting and fractional CPO services through my firm, Palo Alto Foundry.OK.

On this episode I discuss most things ableism and I hope in listening to me, you can reflectively look inward and examine yourself. Ask yourself the deep questions, have you been ableist? Even as a disabled or chronically ill person, you can be ableist. Also ask yourself, “what am I doing my part in the fight for inclusion?”-Let's talk about it.

Celebrating twenty years in the music industry is a great achievement in itself, but celebrating 20 years of sustained success is even better. Bursting out of the blocks with their 2007 debut album The Way Of The Fist, Five Finger Death Punch were on a collision course with the rest of the world, laying the foundations for a turbulent yet continual upwards trajectory.By the time War Is The Answer followed two years later, the band were notorious for their rebellious spirit and ruthless approach to music, but love them or hate them, there was no denying Five Finger Death Punch were the real deal. For every one person who hated the band, there was another ten who loved them, and despite the public perception that 5FDP were the bad boys of metal, they maintained their belief and integrity and stayed on course.Now, 20 years later, that trajectory is available for the world to share when Volume 2 of the band's Best Of double header is released on October 24 via Better Noise Music. Both albums feature music entirely re-recorded, with 5FDP tenaciously clinging to the notion that their music was to be celebrated, not recycled. On the eve of the release of Volume 2, HEAVY sat down for a chat with guitarist Zoltan Bathory to relive the journey that has been two decades in the making."It's kind of crazy, because by doing this little exercise of recording these songs, we got to sort of revisit our past, you know?" he began. "Because we are a forward-facing band, like what's next? Where are we going? What's the next thing we're doing? So it's not really that we're looking into the rearview mirror so much, and so this was kind of crazy, looking back… 20 years… if I had to put some money in and bet, I probably would bet against us (laughs). I would have lost, because not many bands make it that long. It's difficult. And from all bands, this was like… it was a fire tornado or whatever for the last 20 years (laughs)."We ask Zoltan which of the two Best Of albums is his personal favourite."Each record has amazing moments, and both records have a song that has a feature," he measured. "The first one had Maria Brink, and that song became a number-one song. And it made a lot of sense. A lot of people don't know this, but In This Moment, and Maria and Five Finger Death Punch, our history is kind of intertwined. Not many people know this, but there was a band in Los Angeles that was a local band that was fairly big locally, but never really made it. And when this band fell apart, half of the band became In This Moment, and the other half went to Five Finger Death Punch. Then they got the record deal, I think, with Century Media. Then we got ours and we sort of grew in the same time. They were heavier, so they kind of went into that direction. We had radio songs, so the band obviously blew up."In the full interview, Zoltan takes us into both albums in greater detail, highlighting the guest artists on each and why they were chosen. He explained the band's decision to re-record everything rather than re-mix it or touch it up with technology, and relayed some fun stories from their studio time.We spoke about the never-before-released live songs on Volume 2 and how the band chose which songs to put on each album and why. Zoltan shared insights into changing certain bits of the songs, and if that was a rehearsed or jammed in the studio decision, what songs he may have fallen back in love with again during the process, plus he also revealed details of planned new music and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Eddie Ghabour, chief executive officer at Key Advisors Wealth Management, says "the worst is behind us from the economic slowdown," and he expects growth to accelerate at the end of the year and into the first quarter. Combined with rate cuts, it will add fuel to a market that he says is clearly inflating a bubble, with that performance boosted as well by the longer a government shutdown rolls. He says investors should not fear the bubble, because the market will telegraph the bursting. "You can make the most money in bubbles," he says. "The key to bubbles is riding it up but making sure you are not all in when that bubble pops." Ghabour is not the only one talking about the market being in a bubble, as David Lundgren, chief market strategist and portfolio manager at Little Harbor Advisors, says the technicals show a market clearly in bubble territory, but in the long upward phase of that cycle. That's why he is fully invested, for now, despite expecting an ugly downturn that he thinks could begin next year. Drake Hicks, head of impact investing at Variant Investments, discusses the unusual intersection of closed-end funds with impact investing, which goes beyond ESG (environmental, social and government principles) to invest in projects which have a purpose beyond just a profit margin. The firm runs the Variant Impact Fund, a high-yield closed-end interval fund whose assets are aligned with the United Nations' sustainable development goals, and Hicks talks about how shareholders benefit from the interval structure.

Before she rode the shooting star of Broad City into the comedy stratosphere, Ilana Glazer lived in Pablo's old apartment. The non-roommates reunite to blow off steam on: the infuriating inequality of New York; the Helveticazation of Silicon Valley; the re-establishment of Hollywood; the Fox Newsification of a "trillion-dollar hate propaganda machine"; the wisdom of Edward R.

JB White comes in fired up on this episode of the RattlerGator Report, celebrating the long-awaited indictment of James Comey and what it signals about the floodgates finally opening. He vents about the delays in his own hip surgery thanks to high A1C numbers, then quickly turns back to politics, walking listeners through Trump's tossed RICO lawsuit and why it deserves reinstatement on appeal. With sharp commentary, JB explains why keeping insiders close exposes networks, why patience and perseverance are essential, and how Trump's team has been playing the long game. From surveillance of Comey's family to the role of partisan judges, the conversation brims with urgency, faith, and humor. JB also drops his signature mantra, patience, preparation, perseverance, flexibility, resiliency, while weaving in reflections on Ben Carson, Obama, Charlie Kirk, and the cultural battles shaping America. With laughs, candor, and conviction, this episode feels like both a victory lap and a rallying cry: nothing can stop what is coming.

Mitch Churi has worn it all, from chicken suits to Spanx, but what really sets him apart is his razor-sharp wit and unapologetic authenticity. Bursting into commercial radio at just 19, he cut his teeth with industry giants Kyle and Jackie O and was eventually thrown the curveball of redundancy last year. Instead of slowing down, Churi leaned in, reinventing himself with the same mix of charm, bite, and self-deprecating humour that makes him one of Australia’s most entertaining youth voices. In this chat with Antoinette Lattouf, Mitch shares his bold new venture, the art of laughing at ourselves, and the terrifyingly wonderful act of starting something new.

Today on BustED Pencils Drs. Tim Slekar and Johnny Lupinacci review the idiotic ideological purity test that Oklahoma actually spent some amount of money implementing. This test, designed by PragerU, will be given to new teachers from blue states before they're given the privilege of teaching in Oklahoma. While Producer Jakob passed it with flying colors easily, the Drs. have some doubts about it. Should we have purity tests for teachers? Is this stupid? No and yes. Also, Johnny had his appendix removed hours before this episode and was a real trooper for coming in to record anyways. So join us on BustED Pencils as Johnny's bursting to roast this dumb test!

Analysts are raising alarms about the potential for an AI economy bubble, reminiscent of the dot-com crash, as AI-related spending now constitutes about 2% of the U.S. GDP. This surge in investment, particularly following the launch of ChatGPT, has led to significant capital expenditures by major tech firms, consuming a large portion of America's investment pool. As skepticism grows regarding the sustainability of these expenditures, organizations are increasingly shifting their AI workloads from public cloud environments to on-premises systems to ensure better governance, cost predictability, and data privacy.The recent launch of GPT-5 has sparked mixed reactions, yet it is gaining traction in the enterprise market. Early adopters have reported that GPT-5 outperforms competitors in specific tasks, offering faster setups and better results at a lower cost. OpenAI is actively pursuing enterprise clients, expanding its sales team, and exploring financial strategies to bolster its position in the market. Meanwhile, Apple is introducing new tools for businesses to manage employee access to AI services, emphasizing the importance of data protection and governance as AI becomes more integrated into the workplace.Workplace research highlights the benefits of a four-day workweek, revealing that employees experience improved well-being and productivity without a reduction in pay. Additionally, new studies challenge the traditional view on pay transparency, suggesting that greater openness can enhance employee satisfaction. However, immigration policies are creating significant challenges in IT talent management, with a notable decline in H-1B visa registrations, which could hinder the tech industry's growth and innovation.The return-to-office mandates are also impacting the workforce, particularly among working mothers, leading to a decrease in their participation in the labor market. As companies grapple with these changes, there is a growing demand for formal periods of digital silence to enhance productivity and reduce workplace distractions. The podcast emphasizes the need for businesses to focus on outcomes rather than hype, advocating for effective governance, automation, and preparation to adapt to the evolving work environment. Three things to know today 00:00 AI Spending Surge Fuels Bubble Fears Amid Slowing Job Growth and Rising Skepticism04:20 Enterprise AI Shake-Up: GPT-5 Adoption Rises, Apple Tightens Governance, Kaseya Bets on Chat Interfaces08:31 Future of Work in Flux: Shorter Weeks, Pay Transparency, Immigration Crunch, and RTO Fallout This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://scalepad.com/dave/ https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship   All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?
