Live from THAT Conference 2018, Clark Sell @csell5 sits down with Chris Meyer @admirethemeyer the Head of Developer Experience at Misty Robotics @mistyrobotics to talk about this thing called robots. Where do you even start? How do you even define what a robot is these days? What does it mean to create a robotic development platform and where might that lead us as a tech community? What about the role of AI and ethics. We dive into all that and more.

AskTHAT Live from THAT Conference 2018 - it's the uncut behind the behind the scenes with Clark and Carrie. A conversation Clark has been waiting to have for a very long time.

In this episode Clark is joined by Curtis Giveaut (@CJIBO) and Andrew Hooker (@GEEKONCOFFEE).

The goal is simple, help Curtis restructure the organization to better support Product Management. 

The problem? Product management is hard and most really don't even understand the intent of the role.
