Michael Núñez

Editor and investigative journalist focused on artificial intelligence and enterprise technology. I lead VentureBeat’s editorial coverage and guide distributed teams to deliver clear, trustworthy reporting for a global audience.

My reporting has helped shape how the public understands the tech industry. At Gizmodo, I published a series on Facebook’s news curation practices that prompted a U.S. Senate inquiry and was entered into the Congressional Record, sparking a broader debate about platforms and news.

I’ve worked across premier newsrooms—Forbes, Mashable, Gizmodo, and Popular Science—while also operating inside venture capital at Playground Global, bridging editorial rigor with the way frontier technology actually gets built and funded.
