Hey Everyone,

This is a massive project Iโ€™ve been working on this summer. We donโ€™t just learn from topics, we learn from people.

Who Should I follow in AI?

I often get this question, โ€œwho should I be following in AI”?โ€ As an emerging tech analyst, thereโ€™s not a day that goes by that I donโ€™t think about this question.

During the last three years or more, Iโ€™ve been following people across social media to follow the AI scoops and insights in so far as itโ€™s actually possible/valuable to do this in real-time, or in my free time.

Who are the real AI Insiders?

I want to data dump some of that watching-knowledge so my audience can benefit from it as well.

At the end of the day, social media isnโ€™t the best source however experts, writers and professionals on the ground can still give tremendous information whether you are a:

Software engineer

AI enthusiast

Machine learning researcher

Academic

Educator

Founder or Co-founder

A retail investor, angel investor or venture capitalist

Or just anyone in the world interested in these things:

For a General AI Audience

I tried to make a solid list that would be the most valuable to a general audience, software engineers, and not necessarily experts but first and foremost the AI curious. This list will be valuable to the general AI enthusiast and those who want to keep up best with whatโ€™s going on in AI.

I hope itโ€™s valuable to someone. These include some of the best Newsletter creators, YouTubers, podcasters, AI tool curators, and writers around artificial intelligence and specifically new ways of understanding Generative AI.

Who is in the list? ๐Ÿค—

This list features both some of the best Newsletters on AI and people who make LinkedIn posts about AI papers, advances and breakthroughs. In todayโ€™s article weโ€™ll be meeting the first 20, in a list of 150+.

๐Ÿ“ฌ Newsletter Writers

๐ŸŽฅ YouTubers

๐Ÿ‘” Engineers

๐Ÿ”ฌ Researchers who write

โš™๏ธTechnologists who are Creators

๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿซ AI Educators

๐Ÿ”ฅ AI Evangelists of various kinds ๐Ÿคฒ

๐Ÿ”ฎ Futurism writers and authors ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

This list features both some of the best Newsletters on AI and people who make LinkedIn posts about AI papers, advances and breakthroughs.

In my opinion, this intersection of Newsletter operators and LinkedIn professionals is some of the highest value signal to noise ratio in our learning about Generative AI. This list can save you a lot of time.

Top AI Newsletters and People to Follow June, 2024

In the ocean of AI content, where to start? Start with Newsletters, and the people who make them in a dedicated way.

This is not the comprehensive version of this list. Itโ€™s a starter list, but for 2024, itโ€™s a pretty damn good one. (You wonโ€™t find anything else like this anywhere).

This post goes free for a few days on Saturday August 10th, 2024 at 7am EST. You can find snippets of the list on my AI Newsletters on LinkedIn AI Report. Subscribe to Artificial Intelligence Report (230k+)
