Maxwell Zeff is a new senior reporter at TechCrunch. He is a highly experienced technology journalist and will be focusing on artificial intelligence (AI). Based in San Francisco, Zeff is already proving his AI coverage prowess. This is the hottest sector on the market with one of the fastest growing public interests.

Zeff brings deep, diverse political experience to his new role. He most recently served as a tech reporter at Adweek. There, he honed his craft of understanding tech trends and innovations. He previously authored the Cars.com and AutoMobility sections, and spent years as senior editor for all transportation topics at VentureBeat. There, he directed the publication’s technology news coverage and long-form features. Prior to working at the Transport Politics, Zeff worked as a local government reporter at the Hollister Free Lance. That experience provided a well-rounded background in journalism.

Prior to coming on board with TechCrunch, Zeff was vice president of content for a venture capital firm. This position afforded him the opportunity to gain important perspectives on the intersection of technology and public investment. He has deep working relationships with credibly large media organizations including but not limited to Gizmodo, Bloomberg, and MSNBC. From the emergence of generative AI technologies to the Silicon Valley Bank debacle, he’s been there as a front row witness.

Zeff splits time between New York City and San Francisco. This unconventional arrangement puts him at the perfect place to chronicle the fast-changing world of technology startups and new innovations. His focus on AI will contribute significantly to TechCrunch’s ongoing efforts to provide comprehensive coverage of this rapidly evolving field.

Besides Zeff, we’re happy to announce that Theresa Loconsolo is still going strong with her audio producer gig here at TechCrunch. And as executive producer of “Equity,” the network’s flagship podcast, she dives deep into the world where tech meets finance. Collectively, they form a powerful team committed to providing you with deep-dive analysis and insider’s perspective on today’s rapidly-evolving tech industry.

AI is poised to disrupt practically every industry, from healthcare to defense. Zeff’s deep understanding of this still-nascent technology will give TechCrunch readers the clarity they need to navigate this complex landscape. His commitment to exploring both the promise and peril of AI is sure to add depth to the publication’s growing portfolio on the topic.
