The Feed & The Thread - September 7, 2026
We explore the tension between technical compliance and human value, starting with Jeff Gothelf’s warning that AI evals often miss real customer outcomes and Anna Lefour’s finding that designers face speed pressures without strategic support.

This episode asks if we are measuring success correctly while losing sight of the humans behind the metrics.
