Show Notes
Stella is a 15-year-old student at Alpha School in Austin who built her own website, BibliArch, using Claude Code—without knowing how to code. She's working toward creating an AI-powered Sims-like game where users can simulate their own characters and stories. Marty and Stella discuss how Gen Alpha is embracing AI tools while Gen Z remains stuck in pessimism, why traditional education fails to prepare kids for entrepreneurship, and how autonomy-focused schools like Alpha let students pursue real projects. Stella also shares why she prefers Bitcoin, having invested since age five and avoided inflation by saving in BTC.
