Teaching an AI to Interview Humans and Write Buildable Product Specs
I tuned an AI interviewer that turns app ideas into buildable specs — three instruction rounds, a 4×4 persona grid, a blind AI judge, and a clean control run.
My friend Artem presented me with a daunting task: to craft instructions for an LLM that could interview individuals seeking to create their own software and generate a functional Product Requirements Document (PRD) from that conversation. He aimed to build a platform allowing users to quickly conjure software using AI, experience the product lifecycle at an accelerated pace, and potentially achieve some success in the industry.
I initially declined, but the prospect of helping people avoid the pitfalls of the product lifecycle piqued my interest. I proceeded to design a loop to improve the instructions based on feedback from multiple interviews.
