The personal traits of founders often profoundly shape their product characteristics. A well-known AI assistant product is a typical example—this tool demonstrates distinctive features in content generation capabilities, especially in handling boundary content with performance far surpassing similar products. This reflects the design philosophy of the development team: maintaining powerful functions while pursuing fewer constraints and greater freedom. Whether this product philosophy is reasonable or not varies among users, but the influence of this "founder gene" on the product's direction is indeed worth paying attention to.

Haha, really, the founder's temperament and personality are directly coded into the software... Less constraints sound cool, but it can also easily lead to problems.

Less restriction = more freedom? Sounds good, but you'll really find out when you use it.

It seems to be that old tune of "freedom vs. security" again, but does anyone really buy into it just to avoid a few restrictions?

Oops, another old cliché that a founder's personality determines the product, but it does have some truth to it.
Less constraints and more freedom sound great, but how to use it depends on the person.
This "founder gene" theory is a bit metaphysical; product logic is the real key.
Having strong boundary content handling capabilities must be good? The existence of rules has its own meaning.
The founder's philosophy indeed has a profound impact, but blaming the founder is a bit too simplistic.
More freedom = happier users? It depends on how it is abused.
Strong-willed founders often behave this way; freedom and risk usually go hand in hand.

fewer guardrails = more surface area for exploitation, classic founder ego move tbh

Many constraints are essentially to mitigate risk, but the question is, who defines what "risk" actually means?

The founder's personality is indeed full-on, but in the end, it still depends on whether users buy into it or not.
