Product Designer, ChatGPT

San FranciscoYesterday5/5

Our take

This appears to be a duplicate of role [6], so same reasoning applies: ChatGPT has already changed how millions of people think about AI, and this role means directly shaping that experience. Working on the product that introduced conversational AI to the mainstream offers incredible influence over how humans and machines communicate.
