Why Everyone Should Read AI Research Papers

In the world of AI product management, where the hype cycle spins faster than a GPU training the latest LLM, there's one practice I advocate strongly: read the research papers. Ask any software engineer, and they'll tell you they can distinguish a good AI PM from a bad one based solely on how they talk about the technology. If you're building AI-powered products, skeptical about AI, or just tired of the hype, this is essential.
