AI in Product: Signal from Noise
Details
AI is on every roadmap twice – as the product to build and as the tool to build with. Product leaders are caught between two modes: experiment boldly or ship cautiously. Be more technical or double down on curiosity.
This meetup won't resolve that tension. But two speakers will give you sharper questions to navigate it – one from the strategy side, one from the data side.
⚖️ AI: Overhyped or Underhyped?
Martin Eriksson, Coach, Advisor, Author, Speaker @ The Decision Stack
A strategic take on AI for product leaders.
What is noise.
What deserves attention.
How to prepare for shifts that may be dramatic — but uneven.
🔍 Large-Scale Data Analysis Using Natural Language
Varun Mittal, VP Product & Operations @ Unacast
A real case from telecom mobility data.
Faced with 1.5 million rows and the need to verify correlation to national statistics. Using natural language AI as a thinking partner, Varun explored bias, data quality, and gaps – without being a data scientist.
This session is about confidence, not code.
