Technically Speaking with Harrison Wheeler · 2025-05-05 · 44 min
This episode of AI Product Builders is a must-listen. I’m joined by Ovetta Sampson , founder of Right AI and one of the sharpest minds in the AI and design space. With a career that spans leadership roles at Google, Capital One, and IDEO, Ovetta brings a powerful, context-driven lens to the hype around generative AI. We get into: * Why she left Google to build Right AI * The risks no one’s talking about in AI product development * What MoviePass , the Black Death , and Silicon Valley have in common * The real environmental and economic costs of running LLMs * What design leaders need to unlearn now * Her “Mindful AI” framework for building responsible, people-first experiences * Why systems thinking beats wireframes, and what it really takes to design for the future Ovetta breaks it all the way down, history, economics, tech, and the human cost of innovation. This one’s part philosophy lesson, part design critique, part wake-up call.
