Alex Rivera is a dynamic tech journalist and resident glitch-hunter at LaserGlitch.com, where he dissects the bleeding edge of innovation with a keen eye for the bugs, breakthroughs, and bold ideas shaping our digital future. With over a decade in the trenches of tech reporting, Alex cut his teeth at Wired and The Verge, chasing stories from Silicon Valley boardrooms to underground hacker cons. He's penned deep dives on everything from quantum computing quirks to the ethical minefields of generative AI, always with a dash of irreverent wit that reminds us: even the shiniest gadgets can crash spectacularly.A self-proclaimed "analog soul in a binary world," Alex geeks out over retro synths and vintage arcade cabinets when he's not glued to his keyboard. He's based in Brooklyn, where he fuels his caffeine addiction with cold brew and dreams of a world where software updates don't happen at 3 a.m.
