Why the Real AI War is Being Fought in Our Schools w/ Mike Johns | Imagine AI Live 25 | E134

E134 • Jul 21, 2025 • 11 mins

In this episode of the Imagine AI Live Podcast, futurist and author Mike Johns joins Chris Madden live in Las Vegas to explore what the next five years of work and creativity look like in an AI-powered world. Mike discusses his upcoming book Death of a Job, which predicts a major global shift in how we view employment, entrepreneurship, and value. From the rise of the creator economy to the urgent need for AI education starting in grade school, Mike offers a high-energy, honest take on how to survive and thrive in the age of automation. He shares stories of viral AI marketing stunts, building advisory boards for AI policy in cities like L.A. and Vegas, and how we must “meet the kids where they’re at”—on their phones, on social, and on the edge of change. If you care about where AI, education, and the workforce are headed, this is a must-listen.

Key Points

  • AI is rapidly transforming the future of work, particularly within the creator economy.
  • Education systems need to adapt quickly to integrate AI to prepare future generations effectively.
  • Embracing AI and leveraging social media can empower individuals to thrive in the evolving digital landscape.
