Hey friends,
I had a chance to chat with Blake Barnes (VP Product at Google Workspace) who leads products like Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Chat. We talked about the future of work, apps, and human skills as AI advances and becomes more integrated around us.
You can listen to the full conversation on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, or watch the video on YouTube.
What we covered:
AI and its promise of productivity
Productivity killers at work and how AI might solve them
The impact of MCP on the future of apps
The future of Gmail: will it always be a list of emails or will it change like Search did?
Building trust into AI-powered experiences
Advice for companies who want to get started with AI for internal productivity
The human skills that will become more valuable in the future
