Welcome to TiPS – the Topics in Product Series – a new podcast format powered by ITX and the team at Product Momentum. The TiPS mission is to engage the same important product space issues that you confront every day – but this time through the experiences of ITX product managers, UX researchers and designers, engineers, security analysts, and the rest of the team. In this inaugural TiPS episode, Dan Sharp is joined by Sean Murray and Andrew Knoblauch to reflect on a recent Product Leaders Breakfast, hosted by Prerna Singh. Together, they draw on insights from event attendees to discuss how AI is being applied inside real organizations. The central theme was clear: successful AI adoption depends less on hype and more on first principles and core product skills that drive disciplined product thinking, incremental progress, and strong decision-making. Here's what we learned: Top-Down ‘Do AI' Directive Is the Wrong Reason for Integrating AI The integration of AI into software development is no longer the proverbial “hammer in search of a nail.” The days of doing AI for AI's sake are behind us. Today's product leaders focus on making incremental improvements tied to bona fide business problems. As Sean points out, our response to the ‘do AI' directive should be: “’Where do you want to see improvement? What outcomes are you looking for?' I think back to our conversation with Teresa Torres, about applying best practices in the initiation and discovery phases of the SDLC so that when we actually get into building something, it’s gonna have some sort of relevant business value.” It's a more grounded approach that reflects a broader industry need to align AI efforts with tangible outcomes.. Building Stakeholder Trust Through Incremental Change Trust emerged as a critical factor in AI adoption, but not only in the technical sense. Instead, as attendees discussed, trust is built gradually through careful implementation and organizational alignment. Andrew explains that product teams build trust not by tackling the biggest, riskiest challenge – but by prioritizing low- to medium-risk opportunities while involving stakeholders early, especially those in Legal and Compliance. “This idea of building trust among others in your organization.” Andrew continues. “We do this every day with our clients and with our own teammates. We learn about people’s concerns, what they care about.” The conversation reinforces the idea that AI should be introduced as a collaborator within workflows, not as a replacement for human judgment. Decision Quality as the True Differentiator One of the key threads weaving through our conversation was a return to foundational product principles – specifically, the importance of decision-making. While AI fluency is valuable, it does not replace the need for strong judgment and clear thinking. Teams that succeed will be those that consistently make informed, high-quality decisions, Sean says. “The biggest differentiator moving forward is gonna be decision quality…your ability to consistently make good decisions.” In this context, AI becomes an enabler, not the driver, of product success. The conversation at the Product Leaders Breakfast (hosted by Prerna Singh) reinforces a familiar but essential message for all product leaders. AI does not replace core product skills; it amplifies them. Teams that stay focused on problem definition, stakeholder alignment, and disciplined execution will be best positioned to realize its full potential.

Support my Show Sponsor: Best Godaddy Promo Codes Get 1Password Full Summary Cochrane opens the show by framing Anthropic’s new Mythos model as the AlphaGo moment for cybersecurity. From there, the episode moves through Apple’s pushback against AI-generated apps, a gaming anxiety study with a deeply personal hook, a series of “first to ship” energy and robotics wins out of Finland, China, and Japan, and several developer-tool stories that show how quickly the economics of software are shifting. Mythos, the Detection Ceiling, and Wall Street’s Emergency Response Anthropic’s Mythos model has Wall Street rattled. Operating autonomously, Mythos found and demonstrated the exploitation of a 27-year-old TCP SACK bug in OpenBSD, an operating system famous for being one of the most security-focused on the planet. Per Anthropic’s red team, over 99% of the vulnerabilities Mythos has identified remain unpatched. The researchers’ conclusion is blunt: “the moat in AI cybersecurity is the system, not the model.” The policy response moved fast. On April 7th, Treasury Secretary Bessent and Fed Chair Jerome Powell pulled the CEOs of Goldman Sachs, Citi, Bank of America, and Morgan Stanley into Treasury headquarters on short notice. All four banks are now testing Mythos internally. Treasury CIO Sam Corcos is also seeking direct access. Anthropic is gating distribution through Project Glasswing, a limited-access program with JPMorgan, Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Nvidia. Cochrane comes down firmly behind Anthropic’s gated approach. Because a 5.1-billion-parameter open model can apparently recover the core analysis chain for the OpenBSD flaw, this capability is not locked behind Frontier Compute. He wants the critical infrastructure hardened before the public gets keys. However, he also notes the bigger lesson is about human wisdom: people offloading all their thinking to AI lose out on the wisdom that makes any of these tools genuinely useful. Apple Bans Vibe Coding Apps from the App Store Apple has been quietly pushing back against what people are calling “vibe coding” apps. Replit, Vibecode, and an app called Anything all run AI models on the phone and produce working software that runs inside the host app. Apple cites Guideline 2.5.2, in effect since 2017, which requires apps to be self-contained. Replit and Vibecode had their App Store updates blocked. Anything was pulled in late March, briefly restored on April 3rd, and then pulled the same day again. The forcing function is volume. App Store submissions jumped 84% in a single quarter as vibe coding tools flooded Apple’s review queue with AI-generated apps. Cochrane thinks Apple is justified, given the security issues swirling around the Vibe coding ecosystem. Even a beautiful diamond gets lost in a sea of sand, and that flood is exactly what Apple is trying to manage. The company behind Anything is now pivoting to iMessage, desktop, and Android. Playing Video Games to Win Is Linked to Higher Anxiety Cochrane gets personal on this one. Through high school and his early 20s, he was deeply addicted to League of Legends. His dad teased him about it constantly. In the last few years of that addiction, his body would go ice cold and shake every ranked match before. His partner identified it as a panic attack. The moment that happened, he quit. Today, he no longer shakes. The new study lines up with his experience. Researchers Kayleigh Watters and Mikael Rubin at Palo Alto University analyzed a publicly available database of 13,464 adult gamers, most of whom primarily played League of Legends. Players who game to win show higher generalized anxiety but actually play fewer hours, since performance pressure pushes them out. Players who game to relax show strong links between social anxiety avoidance and more hours played. The study appeared in the Journal of Affective Disorders. The headline framing of “playing to win makes you anxious” misses the point. The real finding is more interesting: gaming for avoidance and gaming for competition are both warning signs, for different reasons. Cochrane notes that the League of Legends community’s toxicity has been a running joke for years, and this study suggests the game’s structure may have been manufacturing the anxiety that fueled it.

Verge Motorcycle: World’s First Production All-Solid-State Battery Cochrane filled his tank for $60 today, which made this story land especially hard. His mom has driven electric for years and patiently manages a 90-mile real-world range. The next-generation answer is already shipping. Verge Motorcycles, a Finnish company, is the first production vehicle of any kind with an all-solid-state battery. Their 2026 bikes ship in Q1 with a pack from Donut Lab, another Finnish outfit spun out of Verge. The numbers are bonkers. The pack delivers an energy density of 400 Wh/kg, roughly double that of current Tesla cells. It sustains 100kW charging, hits full charge in about 5 minutes in the lab and 12 minutes on the actual bike, and the long-range version covers 600 kilometers (about 370 miles) per charge. Toyota, QuantumScape, and Samsung SDI have all been telling us that solid-state is coming in 2027 to 2030. A Finnish motorcycle company shipping in Q1 2026 just embarrassed them all. UBTech Humanoid Robot Sales Jump 23-Fold UBTech dropped its 2025 annual earnings on April 1st. Humanoid robot revenue hit 820 million yuan, roughly $119 million USD, up 2,203% from 35.6 million yuan the year before. Unit sales went from 3 robots in 2024 to 1,079 in 2025. Shares jumped 14% on the announcement. The customer list is a real industrial deployment: BYD, Foxconn, Geely, FAW-Volkswagen, and Audi. The flagship is the Walker S2, with UBTech targeting 5,000 units in 2026 and 10,000 in 2027. Cochrane is honest about what this means. He does not think we are heading for an extinction event, but worker displacement is a real concern. The US has no universal income or universal healthcare. The people affected are not white-collar managers. They are everyday line workers who already make the least on the ladder. Work efficiency reportedly doubles when these robots arrive, which is a company-side win, but the humans they replace are not getting half a year of gardening leave to retrain. He invites the listener to take on this one directly. Japan Switches On Asia’s First Osmotic Power Plant In August 2025, Fukuoka’s Seawater Desalination Center quietly opened Asia’s first osmotic power facility. It generates about 880,000 kilowatt-hours per year, enough for roughly 220 homes. It is only the second operational osmotic plant in the world, after Mariager, Denmark, in 2023. Osmotic generation uses a salinity gradient: fresh water on one side of a membrane, salt water on the other, and the pressure difference spins a turbine. The clever part is what Fukuoka does with desalination brine. Instead of regular seawater, the plant uses concentrated brine left over from the desalination process. This amplifies the salt gradient and squeezes more energy out of the same membrane. The result is a closed-loop partnership: the desalination facility produces drinking water and leaves brine behind, the osmotic plant turns the brine into electricity, and that electricity runs the desalination facility. Every desalination plant on Earth produces brine, so if Fukuoka’s co-located model works, the same pattern could be replicated across hundreds of plants worldwide. Japan’s Luna Ring Solar Moon Proposal Goes Viral Again Shimizu Corporation’s Luna Ring concept is making the rounds again. The pitch: a 6,800-mile belt of solar panels around the Moon’s equator, beaming microwave power back to Earth. Project lead Tetsuji Yoshida has long argued that a full ring could eliminate fossil fuel dependence entirely. The proposal first surfaced in 2013, has no funding, no government endorsement, and no concrete cost estimate. Shimizu has not put any active development behind it. Cochrane finds the concept fun every time it resurfaces. However, this would have to be a worldwide effort in the truest sense, with treaties, a new generation of launch economics, and microwave power transmission at a scale nobody has demonstrated. Beaming the power back to Earth has always been one of the biggest practical holdbacks. The Luna Ring is inspirational, but not shipping. Finland’s Onkalo Nuclear Waste Vault Opens Finland’s Onkalo facility is the world’s first permanent deep geologic repository for spent nuclear fuel. Operated by Posiva, the facility is buried about 430 meters down in 1.9-billion-year-old bedrock. It is designed to hold up to 6,500 tons of spent fuel and operate until the 2120s. The construction costs about €1 billion, with operating and closure adding roughly €4 billion more before the program is done. The catch is that radioactivity remains dangerous for hundreds of thousands of years. Edwin Lyman, director of nuclear power safety at the Union of Concerned Scientists, warned that the copper canisters will eventually corrode, with different scientific opinions on how fast. Geologic disposal remains “fraught with uncertainties,” and we have never validated an engineered system across a 100,000-year time frame. The bet is that the rock and copper outlast the radioactivity. Cochrane sees Onkalo as time-buying rather than a final answer. It is more of a bank holding spent fuel while science catches up. He prefers it to Japan’s ongoing approach of releasing tritium-treated water from Fukushima Daiichi into the Pacific, even though the dilution is well below WHO drinking water guidelines. Burying the waste in an insurmountable containment strikes him as the more honest answer to a problem nobody knows how to truly solve. Ghostty Terminal Lands in the Ubuntu Repos Ghostty 1.3.0 is now available in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS’s universe repository. The install is simply `sudo apt install ghostty`, no PPAs, no Snap, no Nix, no building from source. Ghostty was created by Mitchell Hashimoto, co-founder of HashiCorp. It is GPU-accelerated, uses native Swift on macOS and native GTK4 with libadwaita on Linux, and supports tabs, splits, profiles, ligatures, and the Kitty graphics protocol. Cochrane recently caught Hashimoto on a podcast, where he walked through his agentic coding workflow. Ghostty is being actively built using AI harnesses like Claude Code and Codex. Hashimoto told a story in which Codex fixed a six-month-old bug in 45 minutes, for a total API cost of $4.14. Personally, Cochrane uses WezTerm, but he is excited to see Ghostty become more widely available with a native UI rather than Electron. Borgo: Rethinking Go Using Rust Analytics India Magazine profiled Borgo, a programming language by developer Marco Sampellegrini (GitHub: alpacaaa). Borgo is statically typed with Rust-like syntax, but it compiles to Go and uses the Go runtime and garbage collector. It includes sum types (Option and Result), pattern matching, and full compatibility with existing Go packages. Notably, it removes Rust’s borrow checker and lifetimes entirely. Borgo is not new. It first appeared on Hacker News in 2023, with a RustLab talk in 2024. The 2026 angle is a renewed look at it through the lens of AI coding agents, since type-rich languages like Rust have been showing outsized productivity gains. Cochrane is a fan of Rust and stands by the borrow checker, but he enjoys these exploratory languages for what they reveal about what developers actually want. Caveman: A Claude Code Skill That Cuts 65% of Tokens Developer Julius Brussee built a Claude Code skill called Caveman that forces Claude to respond in stripped-down fragments. No articles, no “just,” no “really,” no pleasantries, no hedging. The tagline is “why use many token when few token do trick.” Across 10 real dev tasks, Caveman mode averaged 294 tokens per response, compared to 1,214 in normal mode. That is a 65% drop in output tokens. The project is MIT licensed with three intensity levels: lite, full, and ultra. Cochrane stumbled across the project online and shared it with a classmate who had been complaining about token costs. The classmate now insists that “the caveman is the only way to live.” Cochrane has not made the switch, but the bigger point lands. If a community plugin can cut 65% of tokens without correctness regressions, the labs are shipping verbose-by-default and charging users for the privilege. He suspects verbose output makes models feel more trustworthy, even when the token math says otherwise. Cloudflare Launches EmDash as a WordPress Successor Cloudflare released EmDash on April 9th, an open-source, MIT-licensed, TypeScript-based CMS pitched as the spiritual successor to WordPress. The big flex is that it was built in 60 days using AI coding agents. EmDash runs on Astro 6.0, either on Cloudflare’s edge platform or on a standard Node.js server. The plugin security model uses sandboxed Dynamic Workers with explicit permissions, addressing the architecture flaw that Cloudflare says causes 96% of WordPress vulnerabilities. Cochrane could not resist pointing out the irony of the name. The em dash has become the trademark giveaway that an AI was involved in writing. He has reservations about whether EmDash will succeed. WordPress is extremely hard to unseat, plenty of “WordPress killers” have come and gone, and the ecosystem is twenty-plus years deep. He is curious to see what comes next but not optimistic. Google Open-Sources the DESIGN.md Format Google Labs open-sourced the DESIGN.md format used by Stitch, their AI UI design tool. DESIGN.md is a declarative file capturing a project’s design system, colors, typography, and spacing in a way AI agents can read and apply. Cochrane has tried Stitch personally and finds it impressive at producing web designs. He has also seen DESIGN.md-style files already start appearing in repositories. He sees this kind of file becoming a new paradigm for agentic design, alongside robots.txt and llms.txt. However, he worries about a side effect. If everyone uses the same standardized format and the same AI tools, the web could become a homogeneous set of sites that all look the same. He is enthusiastic about the standardization but hopes designers continue to push for genuinely unique work. A 13-Liter PC With a Water Loop Built Into the Case Geeky Gadgets covered a build by “Visual Thinker”, a 13-liter mini-ITX case with custom SLA-printed water distribution plates built directly into the chassis. Instead of traditional soft tubing, plates channel coolant between the CPU and GPU blocks and are sealed with TPU and silicone molds. The case supports a full-size GPU and an SFX power supply. No thermal benchmarks, parts list, or pricing have been published. It is a one-off you cannot buy. Cochrane sees this as a sign of where PC building has gone in 2026. Modern mid-grade GPUs run nearly every recent game, so raw performance is no longer the differentiator. He likes seeing builders lean into design and craft rather than just stuffing the most powerful parts into a box. He admits he is the traditional type and built his own machine to maximize parts, but the design-first direction is a healthy evolution for the hobby. To close out the show, Cochrane recommends Pocket Casts as a podcast app. He finds it picks up new episodes very quickly. Big thanks to GoDaddy for over twenty years of keeping this show on the air, and a reminder that every promo code use is like writing a check to the show.

Margie Agin is a seasoned go-to-market advisor for B2B technology scale-ups. She brings deep expertise across digital marketing, IT, and cybersecurity. As Founder and Chief Strategist of Centerboard Marketing as well as a former leader at companies like Cisco and Blackboard, she has built a career translating complex technical products into effective market strategies. In this episode (which marks her second visit to Product Momentum), Margie's message is clear: go-to-market (GTM) is not a one-time event or a siloed function – it is an ongoing, cross-functional system that must connect product teams and broader business goals. GTM: A Shared, Continuous Responsibility It's time to redefine go-to-market as a shared, continuous responsibility across teams, Margie says. Product managers in particular often feel disconnected because their fellow stakeholders in the organization misunderstand go-to-market as either a launch event or solely a sales function. Margie reframes GTM as “a coordinated cross-functional engine that spans product, marketing, sales, customer success, and even finance.” It's a perspective that challenges product teams to actively engage in downstream outcomes and collaborate beyond traditional boundaries. Business Context Drives Product Contribution Fundamental to making this critical connection between product team and business outcomes is embracing the product's fit within the broader business and portfolio strategy. Margie reiterates a message shared by recent guests that product managers need to look beyond their individual product scope and consider how their work contributes to company-wide goals like growth, positioning, and revenue. “Think about your product within the context of the business and how it fits into the whole portfolio,” Margie urges. Know Your Targets: Clarity of Audience and Signals Improves Outcomes Rather than trying to boil the ocean by targeting broad customer segments, teams should focus on specific attributes and behaviors that indicate a strong fit. Defining a precise ideal customer profile and identifying meaningful signals of readiness bring a level of clarity to your message that enables more effective messaging, prioritization, and sales efficiency. “It [your target] can’t just be like, everybody that has money,” Margie says. “It has to be somebody with a defined problem and defined attributes – beyond just industry or size of company.” For product leaders, this reinforces the need to deeply understand customer context and bring that insight into go-to-market planning. In the Age of AI, a Strong Point of View Still Matters Finally, even as AI accelerates execution, it does not – indeed, can not – replace the original thinking and nuanced messaging. Teams must still define what makes their product unique and why it matters. AI can enhance delivery, Margie adds, but it cannot generate true insight or perspective. “The difficult part is always what the difficult part has always been, which is figuring out what you have to contribute to the conversation that is unique.” Margie Agin, in her own words: [04:23] When I think of go-to-market, I think one of the most important aspects is that it is connected across different teams. [08:22] Go-to-market is all about connecting the strategy to the execution to make sure everyone is on point with the strategy. [08:53] Product teams need to think about how their product fits into the context of the organization’s whole portfolio. [11:30] As a company matures, its go-to-market strategy lands in one of three buckets: problem-market fit, product-market fit, and platform-market fit. [19:29] We can’t try to boil the ocean and sell to everybody, right? Target customers can’t be ‘everybody who has money.’ Customers have to have a defined problem and some defined attributes, beyond just industry or size of company. [23:58] That type of deep, nuanced thinking…that human work…I don’t think at this point, is something that is solved by AI. [26:40] AI can execute a lot of work on your behalf, but only you know what ultimately you want the result to be. Andrew Knoblauch leads Sales, Partnerships, and Acquisitions at ITX. He believes the best technology partnerships start with genuine relationships, and that understanding a business deeply is what turns a software engagement into lasting value. Andrew connects organizations with technologists and product leaders while remaining invested in delivering strong business outcomes.

Kirk Michie has been an active player in finance for more than 30 years, and involved in middle market M&A for nearly two decades. Since founding Candor Advisors 3 1/2 years ago, Kirk has been involved in nearly $1 Billion worth of sales of private businesses, several to large public companies. His varied experience, often referred to as reps in the M&A gym, paired with his daily involvement in the sector, drives his primary mission, guiding founders to better outcomes.According to Michie, the six secrets to selling a business are finding your why, matching your buyer with your why, professionalizing the financials, not giving up too much too soon, not trying to do it yourself, and managing seller expectations. Understanding the motivations and needs of both the buyer and the seller is crucial to avoiding unmet expectations and ensuring a successful transaction.2023 Business Acquisition Summit Registration Page: https://how2exit--businessacquisitionsummit.thrivecart.com/bavs-2023-vip-1/--------------------------------------------------Contact Kirk onLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kirkmichie/Website: https://candor-advisors.com/--------------------------------------------------How2Exit Joins ITX's Channel Partner Network!-Why ITX?Since 1998, ITX has created $5 billion in value by selling more than 225 IT businesses in 20 countries.

Wendy Dickinson, a business coach, discusses the process of selling a business. She emphasizes the importance of having a clear vision and plan for the business, creating multiple scenarios to make it attractive to potential buyers, and maintaining separate personal and business finances. When it comes to hiring a broker, they advise interviewing multiple brokers and finding one who is honest and experienced. It is important to have an attorney who specializes in mergers and acquisitions and has experience with business sales to avoid killing the deal with lengthy purchase and sales contracts.Wendy makes good use of her founder status and training as a former mental health therapist when working with organizations to deliver executive coaching, team coaching, leadership training and development, and keynote speaking.Watch it on Youtube: https://youtu.be/lzG3BqVftkY--------------------------------------------------Contact Wendy onLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendyburnettedickinson/Website: https://ascendcoachingsolutions.com/Email: wendy@ascendcoachingsolutions.com--------------------------------------------------How2Exit Joins ITX's Channel Partner Network!-Why ITX?Since 1998, ITX has created $5 billion in value by selling more than 225 IT businesses in 20 countries.

Scott Duke is an M&A advisor and the founder of eleven companies. He started his first company while in university to pay for school without taking on a lot of student debt. The company was a painting company, similar to College Pro. When it comes to mergers and acquisitions, interest rates have a huge impact. When interest rates double, banks use a debt servicing ratio to determine how much they are willing to lend. This directly impacts the cash flow of businesses, as the same amount of money is needed to service debt. Scott's story is similar to most entrepreneurs as they start out small and then eventually get into larger ventures.Watch it on Youtube: https://youtu.be/8X2YPg0ulto--------------------------------------------------Contact Scott onLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottgordonduke/Website: https://opnroad.io/--------------------------------------------------How2Exit Joins ITX's Channel Partner Network!-Why ITX?Since 1998, ITX has created $5 billion in value by selling more than 225 IT businesses in 20 countries.
