Jack Brody - Designing Snapchat and the future of music

Jack Brody joined Snapchat as one of the early designers where he spent 10 years and eventually became Head of Product.

So this week’s episode features a lot of lessons learned from the early design team at Snap and an inside look at what makes their culture so special.

But we also go deep into Jack’s new role as the Chief Product Officer at Suno where he’s helping design the future of music. So we end up having quite the discussion on creative launchpads and the impact of AI.

Some highlights:

  • Suno’s vision for the future of music
  • How AI flips the design process on its head
  • Jack’s viral Kim Kardashian moment at Snap
  • How Jack grew his strategy muscles at Snap
  • The 3 types of competitive advantages with AI
  • The big unlock while designing Suno’s creation UX
  • a lot more

Suno is hiring!
