Olive Bright

Oliver Bright is a British tech columnist with a dry wit and a practical brain. Equal parts curious and cautious, he’s endlessly fascinated by the way AI is reshaping daily life — from the coffee queue to the boardroom. He doesn't worship tech, but he respects its potential. Raised in Sheffield and now based in London, Oliver once worked in IT consulting but left to write full-time after realizing people understood systems better when they laughed. He’s known for explaining complex ideas in plain English, with the occasional cheeky metaphor or pop culture jab. If there’s a tool, automation, or ethical dilemma worth discussing, Oliver’s probably already halfway through an analogy about it. When he's not writing, he's tending to his poorly named smart home devices or giving side-eye to productivity hacks that forget humans aren't robots.
