#134 | The rise of Bluesky, breakup of Google, fall of AI & more | Russell Baker

Russell Baker is my buddy from down under.

We connected a couple of years ago, he’s been on the show before and I’ve been a guest on his podcast (“New Ways”).

He’s my guy when I have questions about tech, social media, website, AI and more. When I needed a new website, logo and branding, he’s the one I messaged and thanks to him and his design studio, A Modern Remedy, theinsightpodcast.com is alive and kicking with a back catalogue of all my episodes, searchable by topic and guest!

Today’s episode is all about the changes and events we're seeing on social media, at Google and the future of AI.

I talk to Russell about:

- The recent exodus of users from Twitter and the roles of Trump and Musk

- The history and makeup of Bluesky and why users are increasing

- His predictions for social media in 2025

- Why you need to know about the breakup of Google and how it could affect you

- Why he thinks we need to be wary of the rise of AI

- Ways to protect your data, privacy and, more importantly, your creativity and authenticity in the modern age

- & much more
