Stop planning for 2027: how OpenAI builds product 90 days at a time | Tara Sesha and Nan Yu (OpenAI) | 29 Sept 2026 | Lenny's Podcast
1. Executive Briefing (TL;DR)
- Prioritize Urgency & Speed over A Priori Perfection: Product builders must transition from traditional, highly polished shipping cadences to shipping imperfect, functional harness implementations (e.g., UI toggles) to gather rapid empirical user data [00:01:18].
- The 60-90 Day Product Planning Horizon: Multi-year roadmaps (e.g., planning for 2027) are obsolete in frontier AI; teams must calibrate product features for model capabilities arriving 2 to 3 months out [00:04:45].
