Completely Automated, AI-Powered Newsletter: Top Headlines in Politics, Events, Technology, and Business

Hello Everyone!

I'm excited to announce my newest project - an entirely automated Top Headlines Newsletter, powered by GPT-4. Top news that is picked and written entirely by AI is delivered to your inbox every morning at 9 AM PST.

Our system is** fully automated**, taking care of everything from selecting topics to sending the newsletter. This means that if I were to die today, you would still receive a newsletter every morning.

Our newsletter is integrated with our site, and all stories use 2 left, 2 center, and 2 right wing sources (characterized by AllSidesMedia).

I truly think that AI can revolutionize how we consume news, from mitigating polarization, stopping misinformation spread, and minimizing bias. Please let me know your opinions below!

To be clear - this service is only building the newsletter, and not authoring the articles - is that right?

"written entirely by AI"

Neuraltimes uses ChatGPT to synthesize an article using 6 sources: 2 left, 2 center, 2 right, as they stated. It's like a beefed up version of Reddit's AutoTLDR bot, but it's contaminated by sources that may not be trustworthy (regardless of their political bias). And if the AI makes a mistake, says something wrong, you can bet that it's developer probably won't proofread it or correct it. It's a machine with zero accountability. I wouldn't trust it to tell me the sky is blue.
