This PM Blocks 2 Hours Weekly to Play With AI — Says Hands-On Beats Reading Launches
marilynika · x · 2026-09-29
Product manager marilynika shares how she keeps up with AI's weekly pace: she blocks two non-negotiable hours on her calendar every week — literally called 'Marily plays with AI' — to try a new tool, build something small, see where it breaks, and share what she learned.
She argues reading every new launch teaches less than sitting down and making something work, a habit she says still holds a year later. Her takeaway: PMs are becoming AI builders — put the time on your calendar and start building.
