About Alex's News
From the publisher's feed
Important stories. Interesting stories. Never sensationalized. No ads. Ever.
Made by Alex, run by Alex, for Alex.
I made this podcast to give me the news each morning as I get ready for the day. I wanted to stay informed about the world, but there are a lot of stories highlighted by media outlets that aren't important to the world, relevant to my life, or interesting. In the interest of making money, these media outlets will sensationalize stories and amplify negativity, which is what keeps eyeballs and therefore ad revenue.
So I made a news podcast that can distill out the important stories. If I want to learn more, I can look them up later.
Every day, GPT-4-Turbo will pick out 3 news stories: one it deems the most important, one it deems the most important to the average Californian, one that it thinks would be the most interesting in the realm of science, technology, and economics.
