Introducing Sources
16 september 2025 · 1 min
After spending over 10 years as a tech reporter for other newsrooms, I’m excited to launch my own publication here on Substack. I’m calling it Sources, and it’s about the tech industry’s inside conversation. Lees meer
In my previous role as deputy editor at The Verge, I took readers inside some of the world's most powerful and secretive tech companies, including Meta, Google, Amazon, Apple, OpenAI, and X. I’ve leaked many internal meetings and product roadmaps. I’ve been among the first to cover big storylines, such as the AI talent wars. I’ve also published exclusive interviews with many of the tech world’s most influential leaders.
Over the years, my scoops have won awards, been cited in congressional hearings, ruined board meetings, and even sparked jokes on Saturday Night Live. I broke the news of Facebook’s rebrand to Meta, Sam Altman overturning an attempted boardroom coup at OpenAI, and key details of how Elon Musk took over Twitter.
Sources is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
I’ve never experienced such a wild and exciting time covering tech. The biggest companies are as powerful as ever, but the ground under them is shifting fast. The rise of AI leaders like OpenAI and Anthropic has compelled Big Tech incumbents to scramble. AI remains brittle and buggy, but millions of people are still forming relationships with chatbots. LLMs are quickly reshaping how software itself is created. Who controls talent, distribution, and compute in the years ahead will define the next era.
One of the best parts of my job is getting to try new products that push the boundaries of what technology can do. On the hardware front, smartphones may seem boring, but a wide range of fascinating, AI-enabled wearables is proliferating. Billions of dollars are being invested in the development of brain-computer interfaces and humanoid robots. The world feels like it’s going to look very different in a few ye…
