Want to know the best places for the latest data science, AI, ML news? Or get a filtered news feed from me, so here you go (Updated September 2024):

Data science is too huge to try and capture all the news sources. I try to keep a diverse range to keep my pulse on what’s new and useful. Most great data scientists I know probably spend an hour a week reading the news, so please don’t focus on consuming content (build something!). (I am using data science, AI news, and ML news interchangeably here, because I like them all)

Email newsletters are my favorite source of high-quality information (but YouTube is a strong contender for deep dives).

Reddit is a source I am against starting to browse once or twice a week.

Podcasts

YouTube

TikTok is something I check regularly, but don’t get much new data science news from it, except my channel.

Twitter/X is dropping quickly in my usage and interaction. However, most of my breaking news comes from X. The list of people I actively follow is publicly available here.

LinkedIn is very useful, and I visit it multiple times a day. The value of LinkedIn comes from my existing network, which posts very useful information.

I post my favorite news stories to the ❄️ slack (I limit myself to 3 stories a day). If you want to know my favorite stories (and often fodder for my videos or posts) — follow my Instagram ML News feed. You can find it on my profile: https://www.instagram.com/rajistics/
