The #
1# lesson Perplexity's Aravind Srinivas (
@AravSrinivas) learned from Larry Page:
“The user is never wrong.”
“You cannot blame them for not being good prompters or writers of skills files or sub-agents. You don’t want everyone to learn these concepts.”
“You want the product to do its magic.”
“It shouldn’t be seen as a skill issue if you’re not able to get the AI to do something for you. It’s a product issue.”
“When a product doesn't work, the instinct of an engineer is to always say, ‘You should go do it this way, then it works.’ Because their mind is thinking, ‘How do I fix the problem for the user?’ Rather than, ‘How do I fix the product in a way where the user doesn't even have to think about the problem?’”
“Imagine if the iPhone needed an FDE to onboard everybody. That’s how AI is today.”
