Prior to that, she spent three years as the FT’s Technology Correspondent based in London. An award-winning journalist, Criddle has covered tech for a decade and regularly breaks exclusive stories on tech companies such as Meta, Google, OpenAI, and TikTok.

Criddle is a specialist speaker on Artificial Intelligence. She examines how AI has entered the consumer market, with the mass adoption of advanced models like Chat GPT becoming common. She can also speak to enterprise AI and how developments are transforming workplaces. She highlights the need for regulation, action and agency as the AI arms race continues, raising huge questions for humanity.

In 2022, after writing a series of stories on the company’s operations in London and Europe, TikTok admitted in December that staff at ByteDance had tracked Criddle through her cat’s account in an attempt to identify her sources. She was the only British journalist this happened to, and the actions included surveilling physical location data as well as other personal information.
