A personal AI news feed should not be a firehose. It should be a small set of sources that match the decisions you need to make.
The mistake is starting with broad AI news. Broad feeds are useful for discovery, but they quickly become repetitive when you need a daily workflow.
Start from your responsibilities
Choose sources based on what you need to notice:
- Founders may track competitors, launches, investor signals, and customer-facing tools.
- Developers may track API changes, docs, SDKs, and model releases.
- Product teams may track positioning, feature launches, and customer-impacting changes.
- Consultants may track vendor updates, demos, and client-relevant examples.
The right feed is personal because the right sources depend on your work.
Keep the feed source-led
Use primary sources where possible:
- Company blogs
- Changelogs
- Docs
- RSS feeds
- Newsletters
- YouTube channels
Then use summaries to decide what matters instead of opening every source manually.
