What it is
Import AI is a weekly newsletter by Jack Clark, a co-founder of Anthropic, covering notable AI research papers and what they might mean for the world. Each issue walks through a handful of papers with commentary, and it often ends with a short piece of fiction.
What we like
- Research, explained. It picks papers you'd otherwise miss and says why they matter.
- A clear voice. You get an informed opinion, not just a summary.
- Policy awareness. It connects technical results to safety and policy questions.
What to know
- It's opinionated by design. Read it as one well-informed perspective.
- Not for breaking news. It won't tell you which model launched this morning.
Who it suits
Anyone who wants to understand where AI research is heading, not just what shipped. ReadKernel reads Import AI as one of its sources, so notable issues can show up in the brief.
