Bradley Horowitz, industry veteran and ‪@Google‬ product leader, will talk with ‪@Scale_AI‬ founder and CEO Alexandr Wang about the transformative experiences that have helped him in his current role as lead for products with billions of users, which over the past decade have included Gmail, Calendar, Google Docs, Hangouts, Google News, Blogger, Reader, and Google Photos. He will discuss how he learned to build what users really need, and not what academics believe they need. He will discuss the potential of AI-enable features and applications being explored further and the need to solve the simple problems before being able to convince customers to try more sophisticated features.

When it comes to billion-user systems like Gmail, he will explain how he has helped tackle issues with data-driven product development, a good sense of triage, and relentless experimentation. He also will cover the lessons he learned from Flickr, which he helped Yahoo acquire, and how it’s best to let computers and humans do what they each do best.

Before joining Google, Horowitz helped lead video-analysis startup Virage to an IPO and served as VP of advanced development at Yahoo. Bradley is also an angel investor in Slack, Upstart, Grab, Miro, Coda, Sana and over 100 other high-impact startups.
