In this episode of Future Proof, we sit down with Aman Khan, the Head of Product at Arize AI. Aman reveals why traditional product metrics fail for AI systems and shares Arize's framework for building evaluation systems that actually predict real-world AI performance, plus the emerging PM skills that separate successful AI products from failed experiments.

We discuss:

• How AI builders should think about evaluations
• The role of the AI pm and how product management is evolving
• How you should build with the expectations of foundation models changing.
