    📌 Head to https://granola.ai/marina and enter the code MARINA for 3 months off.Chris Pedregal built a $1.5 billion AI app in 3 years, in a category where Zoom and Google already had similar features before he launched. In this conversation he hands over the exact playbook for breaking out of a crowded market with a tiny team and a small marketing budget — a playbook anyone can use to win in the AI era. We cover: Why Chris kept Granola in closed beta for a full year before launching — and how 150 users taught him more than any public launch wouldThe 2x2 matrix he uses to decide if a startup idea can survive in a market with big competitorsHow Granola grew virally with zero built-in growth loops — no automated emails, no forced sharingThe dot plot: the early-stage retention tool that replaced usage graphs for Chris's teamWhy he doesn't use AI for product decisions — and what he uses it for insteadHow to turn 2,500 meeting recordings into a virtual chief of staffThe one thing small teams can do that Google and Zoom structurally can'tLinks: Subscribe to my newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/subscribe?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=ChrisPedregal Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ X: ⁠https://x.com/siliconvalleymm⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko⁠ My Companies & Products: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://Marinamogilko.co⁠⁠

    Airtable CEO: AI Will Make You Almost Superhuman | Howie Liu

    Howie Liu co-founded Airtable in 2012, the no-code app builder used by over 80% of Fortune 100 companies. After scaling Airtable into one of the biggest software businesses on the planet, he's now building HyperAgent: a platform where anyone can deploy AI agents into their team chats, email, and calendar without writing code. In this conversation, Howie asked me a question I couldn't answer: if you could hire as many people as you wanted for almost zero cost, what roles would you fill first? That's the question agents force you to answer in 2026. We covered: The two skills that separate the people who become almost superhuman from everyone elseHow to build a virtual twin of yourself so you stop being the bottleneck in your own companyWhy builders win the next few years and what the "tinker mindset" actually meansHow to choose between Claude, ChatGPT, and HyperAgent (Howie maps the full landscape)A live demo of his real productivity setup, including an agent that watches X 24/7 and only pings him when something actually mattersHe also walked me through a billboard campaign his agents ran end-to-end (sourcing locations, cross-referencing Google Street View, generating mockups with NanoBanana), and shared his three steps for anyone who's been reading about agents but hasn't deployed one yet. If you've ever felt like the bottleneck in your own work, this one's for you.

    Head of ChatGPT & Codex: AI Agents for Everyone Are HERE | Thibault Sottiaux OpenAI

    Thibault Sottiaux is the head of ChatGPT and Codex at OpenAI. He told me that in a few months, people who don't use AI at all will get the same benefits as those who've spent two years figuring it out. So what's actually going to be your edge in a market this competitive? Thibault opened up and shared a few of his secrets — he showed me how his own agents work and how anyone can set them up. We covered the must-have files everyone should create, the one file you should never write yourself, and the new skill that replaces prompting entirely. If you work with a computer for a living, this is the one to watch this week.

    $4B Box CEO Aaron Levie: The Next 3 Years Are the Best Time to Build — Here's How to Use This Window

    Aaron Levie built Box into a $4 billion company used by 64% of the Fortune 500. Now he says we're at the best moment to build an AI company in 15 years — and the window is 3 years. In this episode, Marina sits down with Aaron to talk about what's actually happening inside enterprise AI, why younger founders have a surprising advantage right now, and which jobs are genuinely at risk vs. which ones AI will make more valuable. Aaron shares why AI agents still need humans at the beginning and end of every process, why the real new constraint isn't code — it's sales and marketing, and what he'd do if he were 19 and starting over in 2026. If you're building, thinking about building, or trying to figure out your next career move in an AI world — this one is for you.

    "In 6 Months, We'll Start Losing Jobs to AI" — Alpha School Founder MacKenzie Price

    MacKenzie Price built Alpha — an AI-first school where kids do academics for 2 hours a day, score in the top 1% nationally across every grade, and learn from AI tutors instead of teachers. She also has a prediction. In the next 6 months, our friends, the people we work with, maybe even ourselves — will start losing jobs to AI. Which is why she's so urgent about this. The school we grew up in was built to raise factory workers. The world our kids are walking into is something else entirely. I came into this conversation skeptical. I went to school in Russia, my parents and grandparents went through the same system, and a part of me still thinks it's the version that works. But MacKenzie's results are hard to argue with — kids in the 25th percentile growing exponentially, kids in the 95th still gaining 80–90%. Not because the technology is magical. Because for the first time, every kid gets the kind of one-to-one mastery learning that used to cost a private tutor. In this episode, MacKenzie breaks down how the model actually works, why Alpha doesn't use chatbots in classrooms, what kids do for the rest of the day when academics only take 2 hours, the teenage student MacKenzie says is on track to be published in Nature, the 6-year-old who made $1,600 selling cookies, and how to replicate parts of Alpha at home if you can't pay $40K–$75K in tuition. MacKenzie is co-founder of Alpha School and the 2 Hour Learning system. One of the few educators saying out loud what most schools are still pretending isn't happening.
