In this explosive two-part episode of "Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu," Tom welcomes Emad Mostaque—the pioneering mind behind Stability AI and its foundational model, Stable Diffusion. With a background as a hedge fund manager and now one of the most influential voices in artificial intelligence, Imad is here to break down why he believes the global economy as we know it is on the verge of obsolescence. Drawing insights from his book "The Last Economy," Imad explains how AI is fundamentally rewriting the rules of work, value, capital, and meaning.
In part one, Tom and Imad set the stage by unraveling Imad’s “Last Economy” thesis: Why existing economic measures like GDP are outdated; why the next major economic disruption isn’t just about automation, but about a full intelligence inversion powered by AI; and how his innovative "MIND" framework (Material, Intelligence, Network, Diversity) helps diagnose both progress and peril in this changing world. From practical economic mathematics to the looming negative value of human labor, this conversation delivers a sobering look at the shockwaves AI is about to send through society—and the critical need to redefine how we measure flourishing and prosperity.
