I use X.com for news and information, specifically information on AI and Data Centers. According to my wife, I use X.com too much. But the more I dig in, the more I love it, and X.com is the fastest way for me to keep up with AI trends today.
I follow very, very few people online, but the ones I do follow are key to understanding the current state of AI. So below is my list for staying up-to-date on AI news through X; several accounts stand out based on their activity, expertise, and focus within the field. Here’s a curated list of some of the best ones to follow:
- @elonmusk: As the head of xAI (and now linked with X itself), Elon Musk frequently shares updates on AI developments, particularly from xAI, like advancements in their Grok model, alongside broader tech insights. His posts often spark discussions on AI’s future.
