  OpenAI Co-Founder: Start Building With AI Before You Feel Ready | Greg Brockman

  Oct 2, 202630 min

  Greg Brockman co-founded OpenAI and previously served as CTO of Stripe. He believes AI could spark a massive renaissance of entrepreneurship—but what should we actually build when the models keep getting better? In this episode, I show Greg the AI app I created to prepare for our interview and ask how to make it more ambitious. We talk about what makes an AI product worth paying for, why domain expertise matters more than ever, and how founders and small-business owners can use AI today.

  TOP 10 Highest-Paying Jobs for the next 10 years (and 5 jobs that have NO future)

  Sep 29, 202618 min

  The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects which jobs will grow through 2035, and it rated 831 occupations by how much of the work AI can do or help with. I went through the data to find the careers where demand is growing, what they pay, and what it takes to get in.We rank 10 growing careers by median salary, from management analysts at $101,860 to computer and information systems managers at $175,140. You'll see why nurse practitioners are the fastest-growing occupation in the country, why software developers are still projected to add 174,700 jobs, and which six-figure healthcare job sits in the lowest AI exposure group. Then we look at the five occupations shrinking fastest and what they have in common.At the end, I show you a simple exercise from Stanford economist Erik Brynjolfsson. Split your last two weeks of work into define, execute and evaluate. Pick one repetitive task, try it with AI, and check the result. Then decide what responsibility you want to grow into with the time you get back. FREE: my 20-minute AI agent setup — no code needed.

  Grammarly CEO: AI Moved the Career Ladder (Most People Don't See It Yet) | Shishir Mehrotra

  Sep 8, 202637 min

  Shishir Mehrotra ran product for YouTube, founded Coda, and has sat on Spotify's board for over a decade. He now runs Superhuman, the company behind Grammarly, which 40 million people use every day.In this episode, he reverses the career advice he gave for twenty years — stop trying to be a great executor, start learning to manage. He explains why the best jobs never come through the recruiting funnel, walks through the framework he built at Google for how promotions actually work, and points to the moment mid-career where the rules quietly change and most people panic. He pushes back on the word "replaced," gives away the interview question he used for hundreds of hires until he talked about it publicly too much, and shares what Bill Campbell told him in 2000 that changed how he measures his own success. 7 skills that get you promoted — https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/p/7-skills-that-make-you-irreplaceable-adc6?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=7-skills : ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/siliconvalleymm⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/⁠⁠⁠⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko⁠⁠⁠⁠ My Companies & Products: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://Marinamogilko.co
