Understand AI without the jargon

Meet Cyborg, the #1 weekly briefing on the latest in AI and what it means for you.

What you’ll get

The latest AI stories in a minute or two.

The launches, research, and strange new products worth knowing about, explained without pretending you enjoy technical PDFs.

The best tool or project I tried this week.

Sometimes useful, sometimes weird, ideally both. The best bit: you can try it out yourself, without being an AI expert.

A provocative question about AI’s future.

Like: what if AI were the next Shakespeare? Not just a tool for writers, but the writer itself. Would we call that creativity?

Something lighter to end on.

Something light to end on—a final note, oddity, or joke from the week—because staying informed should not feel like homework.

“AI is moving fast, but explanations online are too technical, breathless, or gloomy. That’s why I started Cyborg, the AI newsletter for curious readers who haven’t got a computer science degree. Each week, I make sense of what’s changing as clearly and honestly as I can.”
