The Information has hired Nathaniel Popper as bureau chief for our artificial intelligence and enterprise coverage.
He starts July 17 and will be based in San Francisco.
A story on its website states, “Popper has been at the forefront of covering technology and finance for more than a decade. He wrote ‘Digital Gold,’ an acclaimed book about bitcoin, in 2015, and his most recent book, ‘The Trolls of Wall Street,’ is a portrait of the people behind WallStreetBets and how they created a strange new social movement that continues to unleash havoc on the markets.
“He spent the prior 10 years at the New York Times, where he first covered Wall Street before moving to the tech team in SF. He wrote important and memorable stories on everything from robots taking over Wall Street to a major hack of Twitter and Venezuela’s effort to create a national cryptocurrency. One of his stories was turned into a Netflix documentary, Bitconned, which prominently featured Nathaniel.
“Before the Times, he worked at The Forward and the Los Angeles Times as a reporter and editor. He is originally from Pittsburgh and today lives in Oakland with his wife, two sons and their dog.”
