MEDIA APPEARANCES
A technology strategist, inventor, and award-winning science-fiction author, John Maly brings more than 25 years of hands-on experience to some of today’s most urgent questions: How is AI reshaping business and work? Who’s making the policy decisions that will define our digital future — and are they getting it right?
His résumé is unusually deep. He worked on microprocessor design teams at Intel and HP, built enterprise UNIX software, taught algorithms, compilers, networking, and distributed systems at Stanford University, and holds 17 U.S. patents. He founded John Maly & Associates, a consultancy specializing in complex hardware and software technologies.
He’s also a storyteller. His novel Juris Ex Machina won the America Fiction Award — previous winners include Pope Francis, Amy Tan, and Anne Lamott — for Best Science Fiction Novel of 2025, a distinction that reflects his gift for making abstract technological futures feel immediate and human.
For journalists, John is the source who does the translation work for you. He speaks fluently across AI adoption, emerging tech, automation, innovation policy, futurism, and how fast-moving technologies reshape business, culture, and public policy — and he delivers it in plain English on deadline.
Ideal for: News features, expert quotes, op-ed collaboration, podcast appearances, and background briefings on AI and tech policy.
