Kai Navarro is a systems engineer and storyteller who explores how emerging technologies reshape work, creativity, and civic life. After building collaborative robots for manufacturing and prototyping human-centered AI at a design lab, Kai shifted to journalism and research to surface practical implications of complex systems for nontechnical audiences. They write about responsible AI, human–machine collaboration, and the small, surprising ways tech changes daily routines.

Kai blends hands-on technical experience with field reporting and speculative thinking. Their pieces mix interviews with engineers and community leaders, clear explainers of algorithms, and scenario-driven essays that help readers imagine plausible near-term futures. Outside writing, Kai mentors junior engineers, runs a neighborhood tech salon, and experiments with generative art that explores empathy in digital interactions.
