What Will the New Generative Economy Look Like

The world is shifting into a new phase, the generative economy. But what will it actually look like in practice?

In this episode, we explore how AI-driven creation is disrupting industries and reshaping daily life. From breaking down the hidden costs of enterprise software to the rise of vibe coding, we look at why building your own solutions may soon be faster and cheaper than buying them. We also dive into education, asking whether universities can keep up when students can learn more from a $20 AI subscription than a $200,000 degree.

We discuss advertising’s uncertain future, the token costs driving the generative economy, and why data analysis and business decision-making are being completely reimagined. Along the way, we share personal stories on parenting in the algorithm era, the impact of addictive online content, and how domain knowledge still makes all the difference when using AI tools.

This conversation is a roadmap to what’s coming next, and why the generative economy will affect every business, every learner, and every household.
