I'm a researcher who shares insights about the human side of AI.
I share survey data, novel use cases, cultural shifts, and the second-order effects of what's being built.
My insights draw on a decade of consumer research at Google, and ongoing independent analysis of market data and emerging trends.

"One of the most prominent cultural commentators exploring how AI is influencing human behaviour"

You might know me from my newsletter Early Insights Club, or my TikTok (@ashleystriblet).
I'm a former Google Staff Product Researcher who left after realizing the tech industry had a deeper problem: it was building AI products without truly understanding everyday consumers or prioritizing their wellbeing.
I started making content about the "human side of AI" to explain how real people are experiencing AI, and what it might mean for the future.
My whole career has been about advocating for humans in the development of technology. My mission is to democratize research insights so more people across the tech industry can do the same.
