About

A newsroom habit, applied to AI.

SI Agent News follows superintelligence (SI), the next generation of artificial intelligence (AI), and the rumors around it. It reads thousands of sources across 22 categories and holds each claim to the same test: who says it, how many say it, and what would settle it.

It is built by one person with AI doing the reading, and a person deciding every stamp. Sources are credited on every story; where a claim has only one source, we say so.

SI = superintelligence, the new name for AI (artificial intelligence). Our wider network, including the daily brief and the SI Stylebook, lives at siagentsignal.com.
