Nicole N. — AI Researcher
Personal Tech Columnist @ Wall Street Journal // Email: nicole.nguyen@wsj.com My weekly column aims to answer two questions: How can technology help us? How can it hurt us? I am interested in the human side of technology ...from disruptive, newfangled inventions to the broader impacts of our increasingly connected world. The best part of my job? Teaching people about an app, gadget or hidden setting that'll make their lives a little better. And sharing which will make their lives worse. In my decade-plus covering consumer technology, I've interviewed top executives at Apple, Amazon, Netflix and more, hiked mountains to test the limits of wearables, and traveled to remote corners to cover moonshot projects. I've also talked to hundreds (thousands?) of real people about what is—and isn't—working for them. After a few years in Paris, I am back in WSJ's San Francisco bureau. Please get in touch. I love to hear story ideas about mobile devices, cybersecurity, digital privacy, artificial intelligence...and the way technology is changing health, fitness, transportation and more.
