Want to know the best places for the latest data science, AI, ML news? Here’s my filtered news feed (Updated February 2026).

AI/ML 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’m using data science, AI news, and ML news interchangeably here, because I like them all.

Email Newsletters

Email newsletters are my favorite source of high-quality information (but YouTube is a strong contender for deep dives).

Reddit

Reddit is a source I browse once or twice a week.

Podcasts

YouTube

Social Media

TikTok is something I check regularly, but I 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. My one suggestion on X/LinkedIn is DAIR.AI, for their Top AI Papers of the Week.

LinkedIn is useful. The value of LinkedIn comes from my existing network, which posts very useful information.
