The AI Brief
What actually shipped in AI this week, and how to use it to build faster. Five minutes, no fluff, every week. Subscribe free and start with a 5-email course: how I build and run companies with AI agents.
Not another AI newsletter
Your inbox is probably full of AI newsletters that just reword the same press releases. This one is different. I report from the ground: robot factories in Shenzhen, NVIDIA GTC, the World AI Conference in Shanghai. If a humanoid is being built or an agent is being deployed, I've usually seen it in person before I write about it. No hype, just what shipped and why it matters.

Field notes
