AI Brief (/ai-brief)

A morning brew of AI news — curated from ArXiv, Hacker News, Reddit, and skills.sh, filtered and synthesized into what's actually worth your time.

Quick Start

python3 _scripts/ai_brief.py

What It Does

1. Fetches (in sequence): ArXiv papers, HN top stories, Reddit (MachineLearning, LocalLLaMA, etc.), trending skills from skills.sh
2. Synthesizes with AI: filters to AI-relevant content, produces a concise brief with Must-Read, Research Highlights, Community Buzz, Tools & Skills, and a one-liner takeaway

Options

Flag	Description
--skip-fetch	Use today's existing digests only (don't run source scripts)
--no-save	Print to stdout only, don't save to vault

Examples

# Full run: fetch all sources + synthesize
python3 _scripts/ai_brief.py

# Use existing digests (e.g. after org-daily)
python3 _scripts/ai_brief.py --skip-fetch

# Preview without saving
python3 _scripts/ai_brief.py --no-save

Output

• Path: Sources/AI Brief - YYYY-MM-DD.md
• Format: Must-Read → Research Highlights → Community Buzz → Tools & Skills → One-Liner
• Uses [[wikilinks]] for concepts

Pipeline

Run via pipeline:

python3 _scripts/pipeline.py --run ai-brief
