Today’s guest is Logan Kilpatrick, a senior product manager at Google, who tells Ben about his journey from software engineering to machine learning to product management, all with an emphasis on reducing developer friction. They talk through the challenges of non-determinism in AI models and how Google is addressing these issues with a new feature: Grounding with Google Search. Plus, what working at the Apple Store taught Logan about product management.
Logan previously worked at OpenAI, where he led developer relations. He’s now a senior product manager for Google AI Studio, the fastest way for devs to get started with the Gemini API.
Logan’s team just rolled out Grounding with Google Search, a feature built to help developers get fresher, more accurate responses from the Gemini models aided by Google Search. Learn more here.
