The Verge hires Robison to cover artificial intelligence

Kylie Robison

Kylie Robison is joining The Verge as senior AI reporter, where she’ll lead the technology publication’s coverage of artificial intelligence.

She will start May 6.

She’ll work closely with The Verge’s policy and tech teams, delivering must-read coverage around the people and companies shaping the future of AI, how the technology is being developed and used by consumers and creators, and how it’s changing the world – for good and for ill.

Robison joins The Verge from Fortune, where she was senior technology reporter and regularly broke news about Twitter/X. She authored the magazine’s recent cover story on OpenAI and has also profiled buzzy AI startups like Runway.

“Kylie’s infectious energy and ability to break news made her a must-read for us at The Verge,” says editor-in-chief Nilay Patel. “She’s a perfect fit for our newsroom and the right reporter for one of the most exciting beats in tech.”
