On this week's episode, we discuss the dangers of blind trust in enhancement technologies, and the risks that can come with using them. We also take some time to answer questions submitted by our community, including topics like whether product management is cannibalizing UXR, whether it's worth taking a job on a dysfunctional project, and how pro bono work can impact job searches. Tune in for an insightful discussion!
