We should do that episode.
It will take us a while to settle on a theme for that one because there's so many issues at play about whether that's possible today in 2026.
If you'd asked me five years ago, I'd say, obviously, this is going to happen.
There's a bunch of Google millionaires in India who are going to start companies.
But can you start a new kind of multinational today?
Big question.
But also the question was, do you have other explainers you would like us to?
You know, I'm going to come back and say I think we should do more episodes on what is happening to social media.
What happens when AI slop overtakes social media?
What happens to the creator industry when the supply of content because of AI goes through the roof?
I predict that the creator economy is going to get rocked in 2026.
I basically predict this every year.
But you can see the cracks starting to form.
You can see some of the rates dropping for brand deals, which I think is really interesting.
And I think the users are going to rebel against AI.
And the social networks are going to have to do a form of โ
really interesting content moderation to label that stuff that they do not want to do.
So I think we're going to find ourselves doing explainer episodes about content moderation again in 26, but in the context of AI and creators, which will be fascinating.
Well, first, I'll just say something that I feel very deeply about the fact that we run a newsroom.
Ignoring things does not make them go away.
