We’ve got a new newsletter – So What? Tell Me When I Should Care AI News.

This is a new experiment from Trust Insights, making a machine-generated newsletter. Let me take you behind the scenes.

Katie and I have watched AI news come flooding in. Every day, there are thousands of new articles, social posts, papers, and shows to keep track of. There are newsletters galore rounding up each of them, but far too many of them are shiny-object focused.

For example, Qwen3 came out last night. It’s a great model, but for the average non-technical user, they’re probably not going to be using it right away. (for the technical user, run, don’t walk, to grab your copy – it’s SO good)

So we built a system with generative AI as the engine to take the flood of content, rank it, score it, and then customize it for you, the non-technical marketer, to explain the headlines and why you should care about them.

Here’s what’s missing: breathless hot takes on AI tech, because very little of what’s new in AI is immediately usable. Instead, the system thinks through what each article is about, why you might care, and then puts together a newsletter of the top 10 scoring articles for the week.

It’s also environmentally friendly – all our processing is done locally on a single MacBook Pro, running local AI models, and powered by local solar energy.

The hardest part of the system was not the AI, but all the infrastructure around it, from gathering data to processing it, storing it, and producing the output. AI is the engine, but we needed to build the rest of the car.

Link in the comments if you want to subscribe, and if you want us to walk through how we built this system (or if you want to learn how to build one for your clients), tell us about it in the comments. Maybe we’ll do a future livestream or something on it.
