# Watchlist — original outlets and thinkers
|
||
|
||
Version 0.1 · 13 September 2026
|
||
|
||
Daily monitoring prefers **primary outlets**. Commentary is used to find primaries, not as the record.
|
||
|
||
## A. Labs and model builders (primary)
|
||
|
||
- OpenAI — research, product, preparedness, system cards
|
||
- Anthropic — research, alignment, economic index, model cards
|
||
- Google DeepMind / Google AI — Gemini, science models, weather/bio
|
||
- xAI — Grok model cards and API docs
|
||
- Meta Superintelligence Labs / Meta AI — Muse Spark, Llama, research
|
||
- Mistral, Cohere
|
||
- DeepSeek, Alibaba Qwen, Moonshot Kimi, Z.ai / Zhipu GLM, MiniMax, Tencent Hunyuan, Thinking Machines
|
||
- Cognition, Adept-class agent firms, World Labs, Pathway (architecture outliers)
|
||
|
||
## B. Measurement houses (primary for the ledger)
|
||
|
||
- Artificial Analysis
|
||
- Epoch AI (benchmarks, ECI, compute/data trackers)
|
||
- ARC Prize
|
||
- SWE-bench / Terminal-Bench / OSWorld maintainers
|
||
- Stanford HAI AI Index, HELM
|
||
- LMSYS / Arena (preference, not task success)
|
||
- BenchLM, UnifyBench, and other evidence-tracing boards (secondary corroboration)
|
||
|
||
## C. Science of intelligence (primary)
|
||
|
||
- arXiv cs.AI, cs.LG, cs.CL, q-bio.NC; Nature / Science / Neuron / Nat. Commun. when they land
|
||
- Cognitive science venues (Psychological Science, Cognitive Science, Daedalus intelligence issues)
|
||
- NeuroAI programs: Wang-style foundational brain models, connectomics, PFC control
|
||
- Tenenbaum / Ganguli / Gonzalez complementary-intelligence lines
|
||
- Papers With Code only as an index, not as a source of truth
|
||
|
||
## D. Hardware, systems, energy
|
||
|
||
- NVIDIA, AMD, TSMC, ASML, Huawei Ascend coverage from primary filings
|
||
- Hyperscaler capex letters (MSFT, GOOG, AMZN, META, ORCL)
|
||
- National compute plans (US, EU, CN, IN, Gulf)
|
||
|
||
## E. Economy, firms, markets
|
||
|
||
- Lab blogs + The Information / Semafor / Bloomberg for deal flow (verify)
|
||
- Earnings transcripts
|
||
- Pricing pages and status dashboards (availability is data)
|
||
|
||
## F. Politics, law, regulation
|
||
|
||
- Official texts: US executive orders and agency rules, EU AI Act implementing acts, China interim measures, UK AISI / DSIT, OECD, UN
|
||
- Court dockets on copyright, product liability, export controls
|
||
- Preparedness / safety institute evaluations (US AISI, EU equivalents, independent red teams)
|
||
|
||
## G. Thinkers to read in the original (not the clip)
|
||
|
||
Keep the list short and rotate. Current standing set:
|
||
|
||
**Builders / research leads:** Dario Amodei, Demis Hassabis, Shane Legg, Ilya Sutskever, Noam Brown, Jared Kaplan, Jack Clark, Sepp Hochreiter, Yann LeCun, Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, Fei-Fei Li, Oriol Vinyals, Chelsea Finn, Jim Fan, John Schulman-class post-training leads, Moonshot / DeepSeek / Qwen chief scientists when they publish.
|
||
|
||
**Measurement / forecasting:** Epoch AI authors, Artificial Analysis, ARC Prize (Chollet and successors), METR / eval orgs, Ajeya Cotra–class compute forecasts, Stanford HAI index leads.
|
||
|
||
**Cognitive science / NeuroAI:** Joshua Tenenbaum, Surya Ganguli, Xiao-Jing Wang, Karl Friston (predictive processing — track influence, do not endorse), Nancy Kanwisher / Ev Fedorenko language-brain line, Anne Collins / Tom Griffiths resource-rational line.
|
||
|
||
**Political economy / law:** Jack Clark (Import AI), Helen Toner–class policy, EU and US agency technical staff papers, competition-authority reports.
|
||
|
||
**Public squares (secondary, high noise):** X accounts of the above; Hacker News; LessWrong / Alignment Forum only when a primary artifact is linked.
|
||
|
||
## H. Daily scan order (30–40 minutes of model time)
|
||
|
||
1. Lab blogs + X posts from standing thinkers that link a primary
|
||
2. Artificial Analysis / Epoch / ARC / agent-bench leaderboards for *deltas*
|
||
3. arXiv cs.AI/LG frontpage + Nature/Science news
|
||
4. Regulator and court feeds
|
||
5. Pricing/status/capacity incidents
|
||
6. One pass of quality press to catch missed primaries (MIT TR, Ars, The Information, Axios, Semafor, ThursdAI release log)
|
||
|
||
Reject: product roundups with no source, leaked slides without corroboration, “AGI declared” quotes without a measurement.
