n this episode of the Macro AI Podcast, Gary and Scott break down Google’s bold entry into the AI-agent space with Google Workspace Studio—a new platform designed to build intelligent agents and automated workflows directly inside Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Drive, and the broader Workspace ecosystem.

The hosts explore how Google evolved from lightweight collaboration apps to a full AI automation platform, what lessons they learned from Duet AI, and how Workspace Studio changes the game for businesses that rely on Google Workspace. Gary and Scott dive into real use cases for HR, finance, sales, marketing, and knowledge management, and they compare Workspace Studio to Microsoft Copilot Studio to help leaders understand which platform delivers the most value.

They also cover the risks, governance challenges, ethical considerations, and where AI agents are headed next—including the rise of digital coworkers with persistent memory.

If your teams live inside Google Workspace, or if you’re evaluating the future of AI-driven productivity, this episode is essential listening.
