I maintain a list of the tech and creator newsletters I subscribe to.
When ChatGPT and LLMs started to become mainstream, many poor-quality newsletters about AI appeared and/or with the sole purpose of embedding advertisements in emails.
I found a quality newsletter, genuinely made by those interested in the subject, with updated news, containing reference links, and without ads.
Free daily (M-W-F) news email. Tuesdays and Thursdays are for paying subs, $5 per month.
Matt Levine’s Money Stuff is awesome if you’re at all interested in finance. It’s kind off a offbeat take on things and really delves into the weirdness of financial fraud, crypto and Elon Musk, among other things.
Yes. And it is free. You can also read it on Bloomberg, but you have to pay for it there.
If you are interested in manufacturing and logistics Scope of Work (https://www.scopeofwork.net) is a pretty interesting weekly email.
It is paid, but Stratechery (https://stratechery.com) has interesting analysis in the world of tech.
Serious news about the (serious) longevity businesses and research.
Readtangle.com. No matter what your political leanings are, it will get you out of your news bubble.
Of those I subscribe to, a few I don’t miss reading:
- https://www.the-syllabus.com/ - A curated selection of articles and videos. Broad, it covers politics, tech, etc through careful journalism, papers and talks.
- https://www.aisnakeoil.com/ - Commentary and chapters from a forthcoming textbook. Tired of all the lazy hype so this is nice to read. By Arvind Narayanan (the PL researcher) and an AI PhD student.
- https://www.carbonbrief.org/ - Weekly summary of climate stuff, something important but Im too lazy to properly follow news.
