South by Southwest 2025 just wrapped, and this year wasn’t just about what’s next in tech—it was about how much of it we’re actually okay with. AI chatbots are getting really personal. Deepfake fraud is up 2137%. Social media is broken (again). And even the people building the future are freaking out.
In this episode, Jenny and Greg Swan unpack:
🤖 AI’s existential crisis—Is it a tool for human flourishing or the beginning of the end?
📱 Social media’s identity crisis—BlueSky, the Fediverse, and why no one trusts anything anymore.
🎭 Deepfake scams are here—Why you need a family password, like, yesterday.
😰 Tech anxiety is real—Even the nerds at SXSW are feeling it.
The big question: If we expect the future to be a disaster, do we make it one? Or can we actually shape what’s next?
