How I Stay Updated on the Latest AI Research
It’s all about subscribing to the right feed
AI is the new electricity, as Andrew Ng styles it. Every day another application is disrupted by cutting-edge machine learning research. Trying to keep up with the endless stream of new technologies is heart-breaking. If you fancy trying to cope with it, here I present you with what are my top 5 resources for AI-related news and knowledge.
#1 The Batch
The deeplearning.ai weekly newsletter. Each week, it packs recent break-throughs and noteworthy news alongside a short intro by Andrew Ng himself. The best thing about The Batch is that it is quick, self-contained, and always includes some perspective on the news, such as “why it matters.”
This is the best place to start, as it is not overwhelming, is self-contained, and is not focused on any particular sub-topic.
#2 Medium
Yeah, this place is incredible. Make sure you check AI and Data Science as topics of interest and start following people and publications that have similar interests as you. Most of what I see on The Batch I also see here but in more detail. Sometimes I find stuff here before it even gets to The Batch.
