David Pogue has helped millions of people understand tech for decades — first as a weekly tech columnist for the New York Times, then as a five-time Emmy winner for his stories on CBS News Sunday Morning, and as the author and co-author of more than one hundred books. It’s safe to say he’s an expert on all things tech.
That expertise also provides the superpower of predicting the future by understanding the past. Pogue shared his insights with Utah Valley University students, faculty, and staff during the Spring Presidential Lecture on March 3.
Pogue provided observations on the influence of the Apple iPhone, impending technological advances like self-driving cars, and the way a lack of familiarity with new discoveries drives fear and skepticism.
Utah Valley University’s Presidential Lecture Series invites esteemed experts from around the world to share their insights, experiences, and advice with UVU students, faculty, staff, and community members. Hosted by the Office of the President, this prestigious event takes place during both fall and spring semesters.
