It’s finally here, and I had a ton of fun writing this — yeah, I’m odd like that 😉

✨ The Future Is a Place We Visit, But Never Stay ✨

A Post-RSAC 2025 Reflection on the Kinda Funny and Pretty Weird Ways Society, Technology, and Cybersecurity Intersect, Interact, and Often Simply Ignore Each Other.

Disclaimer: Yes, it includes goats, popcorn, self-driving cars and potholes, zero trust, AI, quantum — and what it means to actually build something worth walking toward.

It’s not a recap. It’s not a hype piece. It’s a story — about where we are, where we think we’re going, and what happens when we keep dragging the past into the future like a suitcase full of rotary phones and fax machines.

It’s funny. It’s weird. It’s honest.
And if you’ve ever walked a conference floor wondering, “Is this how we prepare for the future?” — this one’s for you.

There’s also a podcast version of it that I think came out quite nice.

Enjoy, share, subscribe, and be merry!

A brand new episode of Redefining #Society & #Technology Podcast, on ITSPmagazine

Living Forever (Sort Of): AI Clones, Digital Ghosts, and the Problem with Perfection

Bruce Y. Lee and I met once again in our favorite make-believe bar to explore what might be one of the most unsettling — and fascinating — questions of our time: What happens when your AI clone outlives you?

In this episode, Bruce Y. Lee and I explore digital immortality, algorithmic relationships, and what makes a person… well, a person. Star Trek, deepfakes, AI therapists, and dead celebrities all make an appearance. Is it still you if your clone outlives you?

Let’s discuss!

– Star Trek ethics and uncanny valleys

– ChatGPT friendships that feel a little too real

– What it means to build a digital legacy you never signed off on

– And whether a recreated version of “you” is still… you 👻 🫢

From #holograms to memory simulations, #socialengineering to emotional #algorithms, we’re not here to decide what’s right or wrong — just to ask: where does reality end, and where does the replica begin?
