AI isn’t just a new tool, it’s rewriting the rules of how we build, lead, and innovate.

In this episode of the Productized Podcast, host André Marquet sits down with Hugo de Sousa (founder of Mars Shot, innovation consultant, and former professional chess player) to explore how AI, unlearning, and vibe coding are reshaping product strategy and leadership.

You’ll learn:

➡️ Why AI is a cultural catalyst for change, not just technology

➡️ The superpower of unlearning and learning in a fast-moving world

➡️ What “vibe coding” means and how it accelerates innovation

➡️ How leaders can embrace experimentation without fear of failure

➡️ Why digital literacy is the #1 leadership skill of the future

If you’re a product leader, innovator, or strategist, this conversation will help you see AI not as a disruption, but as an opportunity to transform how teams create change together.
