23 GIU 2026 · Most people think the hardest part of entrepreneurship is coming up with an idea. For a lot of founders today, that’s no longer the problem. The problem is deciding which ideas deserve your time. In this solo episode of Black Tech Green Money, Will Lucas explores what happens when every opportunity feels like it could be the next big thing. From software startups and media ventures to hospitality, real estate, and AI-powered products, Will shares the reality of navigating a growing portfolio of ideas while trying to stay focused on what matters most. Along the way, he examines the difference between ideas that excite you and ideas that align with your long-term vision, why AI has made starting projects easier than ever, and how judgment—not execution—may be becoming the most valuable skill in entrepreneurship. This is a candid conversation about focus, opportunity, decision-making, and the hidden cost of chasing too many good ideas. If you’ve ever found yourself asking, “Should I build this?” this episode is for you.

16 GIU 2026 · Everyone is talking about how AI can help you build a company. Few people are talking about what happens after the AI starts writing the code. In this episode, Will Lucas takes you behind the scenes of building ICON, an on-demand photography marketplace, largely with the help of AI. From working in the wrong repository and rebuilding architecture, to broken app launches, failed notifications, customer-trust issues, and the constant cycle of two steps forward and four steps back, this is the honest version of what it looks like to build a real product in the age of AI. Along the way, Will shares what AI is genuinely great at, where it consistently falls short, why judgment may be the most valuable skill in the modern economy, and why the goal of a startup is never perfection, it’s getting to launch. If you’ve ever wondered whether AI is hype, opportunity, or something in between, this episode is for you. Links Mentioned in This Episode:

9 GIU 2026 · Most aspiring entrepreneurs think their biggest challenge is finding the perfect startup idea. In this solo episode of Black Tech Green Money, Will Lucas argues that the real challenge isn’t generating ideas, it’s learning how to recognize problems worth solving. Drawing from his experiences building CommPartHS and ICON, Will explores how successful businesses often emerge from observing inefficiencies, unmet needs, and overlooked opportunities hiding in plain sight. He breaks down why AI is a powerful tool but not a substitute for insight, how your current job or industry may be revealing business opportunities every day, and why entrepreneurs who develop the skill of observation will have a lasting advantage in the AI era.
