Data Science / AI News Sources
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).
- Ben’s Bites
- Jack Clark newsletter
- Medium (various authors)
- Christoph Molnar
- The Batch from DeepLearning.AI
- Ben Lorica
- Changelog
- Rundown AI
- Interconnects
- AI News (from swyx and Latent Space)
- Data Machina (Gone quiet)
- Synced (Gone Quiet)
Reddit is a source I am against starting to browse once or twice a week.
- Machine Learning
- DataScience — It’s not useful for news or learning, but getting the vibes of the community
- Learningmachinelearning — Interesting but uneven quality
Podcasts
YouTube
- Yannic (yes, he has been offensive, but he produces very understandable technical content)
- PyData conferences
- Cohere
- Stanford MLSys Seminars
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/
