  2. Identify gaps in their intuition - Determine where their product judgment feels weakest
  3. Suggest deliberate practice - Recommend specific activities to build taste over time
  4. Help them trust their gut - Guide them on when to rely on intuition vs. data

  3. 建议刻意练习 - 推荐具体的活动,逐步培养产品品味
  4. 帮助他们相信自己的直觉 - 指导他们何时依赖直觉、何时依赖数据

Core Principles

核心原则

Intuition is a hypothesis generator

直觉是假设生成器

Dylan Field: "I think intuition is like a hypothesis generator and you're constantly generating these hypotheses and others are generating hypotheses as well." Intuition isn't about being right - it's about generating good hypotheses quickly that you can then validate.
Dylan Field:“我认为直觉就像一个假设生成器,你不断生成这些假设,其他人也在生成假设。”直觉不在于永远正确——而在于快速生成优质假设,随后你可以对其进行验证。

Taste is the differentiator in an AI world

在AI时代,品味是差异化竞争力

Alex Komoroske: "In this cacophony, how do you stand out? You stand out by having good taste. I think taste is the most important thing." As AI makes production easier, taste becomes the critical differentiator that separates great products from "slop."
Alex Komoroske:“在这种嘈杂的环境中,如何脱颖而出?答案是拥有出色的品味。我认为品味是最重要的东西。”随着AI降低了生产门槛,品味成为区分优秀产品与“平庸产品”的关键因素。

Taste is a developable skill

品味是可培养的技能

Guillermo Rauch: "Taste, sometimes I think we think of as this inaccessible thing that, 'Oh, that person was born with taste.' I see it as a skill that it can develop." Taste is built through "exposure hours" and deliberately analyzing the best products in the world, not innate talent.
Guillermo Rauch:“有时我们认为品味是一种遥不可及的天赋,觉得‘哦,那个人天生就有品味’。但我认为它是一项可以培养的技能。”品味是通过“接触时长”和刻意分析世界上最优秀的产品来建立的,而非与生俱来的天赋。

Build taste through self-observation

通过自我观察培养品味

Julie Zhuo: "The number one advice... is it's just really about observation and it's about curiosity and can start by first observing yourself." Build product sense by noticing your own reactions to products, then validating those observations qualitatively and quantitatively.
Julie Zhuo:“最重要的建议……就是真正去观察,保持好奇心,可以从观察自己开始。”通过留意自己对产品的反应,然后从定性和定量层面验证这些观察,来建立产品思维。

Be a voracious user of products

成为产品的深度使用者

Kayvon Beykpour: "The best cheat codes for getting better at building products is just being a voracious user of products... There's just no replacement for that." Building great consumer products relies on "muscle memory" developed by using many products deeply.
Kayvon Beykpour:“提升产品构建能力的最佳捷径就是成为产品的深度使用者……这一点无可替代。”打造优秀的消费产品依赖于通过深度使用大量产品而形成的“肌肉记忆”。

Taste means knowing what to remove

品味意味着懂得取舍

Great taste isn't just about what to add - it's about knowing what to cut. The ability to simplify and focus is a core expression of product taste.
优秀的品味不仅在于知道要添加什么——更在于知道要删减什么。简化和聚焦的能力是产品品味的核心体现。

Questions to Help Users

用于帮助用户的问题

  • "What products do you use daily that you think are exceptionally well-designed? What makes them great?"
  • "When was the last time you analyzed a competitor's product in detail? What did you learn?"
  • "When you use a new app, what do you notice first? What bothers you?"
  • "How often do you experiment with products outside your industry or domain?"
  • "When your intuition and data conflict, how do you decide what to do?"
  • “你日常使用的产品中,哪些设计得格外出色?是什么让它们如此优秀?”
  • “你上一次详细分析竞品产品是什么时候?你学到了什么?”
  • “当你使用一款新应用时,你首先注意到什么?什么地方让你感到困扰?”
  • “你多久会尝试一次所在行业或领域之外的产品?”
  • “当你的直觉与数据产生冲突时,你会如何决策?”

Common Mistakes to Flag

需要指出的常见误区

  • Treating taste as innate - Believing some people just "have it" rather than developing it deliberately
  • Not using enough products - Limited exposure leading to limited intuition
  • Ignoring your own reactions - Not paying attention to what delights or frustrates you as a user
  • Over-relying on data - Never making decisions based on judgment when data is unavailable
  • Copying without understanding - Adopting patterns from successful products without understanding why they work
  • 将品味视为天赋 - 认为有些人“天生就有品味”,而非刻意培养
  • 产品接触范围狭窄 - 有限的接触导致直觉受限
  • 忽视自身反应 - 不关注自己作为用户时的愉悦或不满感受
  • 过度依赖数据 - 在缺乏数据时,从不凭借判断力做决策
  • 盲目抄袭 - 照搬成功产品的模式,却不理解其背后的逻辑
