Reflecting on the Lenny & Friends Summit, Lenny Rachitsky says the curated in-person event had the strongest product-market fit of anything he's done. His read: the more we work with agents, the lonelier the work becomes, and the stronger the pull toward real human connection. Attendee quotes reinforced the theme — "underneath all this technology, we're still just ancient humans looking for connection."
