Branding choices and the controversial icon

Alex and Ellis talk about navigating ethics in media and programming the pod, the rise of film photography, and Alex’s trip to OpenAI. Then they’re joined by Granola co-founder Sam to talk about building one of the breakout AI meeting tools. They discuss why meetings are still where decisions actually get made and how Granola is evolving as a product. They also get into design choices, how people use the product in real workflows, and what it means to build tools that sit within your most important conversations.
