After 12 years, I'm back writing a weekly tech column! Free, no ads, no paywall. You can get it by email. Today's topic: Moltbook, the bizarre social-media network just for AI bots to talk to each other. It's freaking people out. pogueman.substack.com/p/no-t…

Here's my review of "You Can See Everything." pogueman.substack.com/p/you-…

"You Can See Everything" is one weird, wild, whacked-out documentary. As a master manipulator, Nathan Fielder may have met his match in Elizabeth Holmes. This movie is so different that it's impossible to describe in a review, but I gave it my best shot. pogueman.substack.com/p/you-…

When I reported my "@CBSSunday Morning" story on the fears of an AI apocalypse, I could not get one interview out of my head. It was with @DKokotajlo, who resigned from OpenAI when he became alarmed at its recklessness. Today, he's one of the clearest, smartest, most thoughtful thinkers about the AI endgame. Here's a transcript. pogueman.substack.com/p/the-…

My new “Pogue’s Posts” column today: 24 hours of triumphs and failures in the life of using Siri AI. A real-world journal, to give you an idea of what life is like when you rarely even open apps. pogueman.substack.com/p/a-da…

On "@CBSSunday Morning" today: Here's my deep dive on AI apocalypse. Why would AI want to eliminate humans? How? And where do we stand with adopting safeguards? youtube.com/watch?v=zW2GaUwD… (Outside the U.S.: CBSSundayMorning.com.)

Hey Michganders! Whatcha doing tonight? Come say hello... as I give my E-series talk about AI, the apocalypse, and you! espeakerseries.ludus.com/sho…

For today's “Pogue’s Posts" column, I tested the new AI Siri. HARD. It missed a few out of my 125 tasks—but some of its triumphs were jaw-dropping. If you can get into the habit of using Siri, you'll do a lot less opening apps, fumbling around, and wasting time. pogueman.substack.com/p/125-…

Apple just unveiled its new folding phone: the iPhone Duo. Passport-sized when closed, 7.6-inch tablet sized when open. Here are the notes I took, for your summarizing pleasure.

This summer, iceberg lettuce made people sick in 49 states. In the panic, people stopped eating salads—and restaurants like Chopt were caught in the crossfire. Today's “Pogue’s Posts”: a video interview with @Chopt's founders, who look back at the crisis. pogueman.substack.com/p/bumm…

Today, I joined @NPR's "Marketplace" to tell a crazy story: How a stranger offered to sell me a 100-year-old photo album that my grandmother put together when she was 20 years old—and how it made its way home through the decades. It's here: marketplace.org/story/2026/0…

Today in “Pogue’s Posts” (free and ad-free): A guest post by Del Yocam, Apple's first COO. He's got some great insight into Steve Jobs's lasting Achilles' heel: His preference for closed systems. substack.com/home/post/p-212…

This year marks the 15th anniversary of "@BookOfMormon" on Broadway. Today, I present a departure from my usual column topics: an interview with the show's creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker ("@SouthPark") and double EGOT winner Bobby Lopez ("Frozen," "Avenue Q")! pogueman.substack.com/p/the-…

Here's my cover story for "@CBSSunday Morning" today: The explosion of ticks in the U.S.—and the new(ish) disease alpha-gal syndrome, which gives you a violent allergy to MEAT (beef, pork, lamb, veal, etc.). I will never again walk in nature without the special socks! youtu.be/LTomL0S8wgM

Last week, on a ship off the coast of Spain, I watched a total solar eclipse—followed by an eclipse SUNSET—followed by the peak of the Perseid meteor shower. Somehow, there's enough left of my brain to write a column about it. substack.com/inbox/post/2120…

My story on "@CBSSunday Morning" today: @inaturalist, the phone app that identifies any plant, animal, or bug--and tells biologists what's happening on the planet. Featuring Martha Stewart. youtu.be/KlNoXewjcyY
