Hi Evan, first-things-first, I enjoy your newsletter in that it makes me think - always a good thing. Re "A REWORKED SECTION", I already get three good summaries of everything AI and I don't need a fourth, although yours might be so much better. If you zoomed out and looked at the AI landscape from a broader perspective, it would be helpful, and of course, you occasionally mention a product you think is great. People talk about "AI Slop" and I sometimes think going down a rathole to try and keep across all the AI-Product-Slop is a waste ot my time. Kind Regards-Greg
Just a quick, random thought to start — has anyone ever told you that you look a lot like Anthony Fantano (@theneedledrop)? It's interesting to think about the parallel careers you both have as tastemakers in different industries (tech vs. music). A future collaboration could be very cool!
Regarding your feedback request, I agree with the general sentiment from XperientialAI. Your unique perspective is what's most valuable, especially since Big Tech and deal news are already well-covered and product releases are well-covered by newsletters like Ben's Bites. So you either probably would need to zoom out further or zoom in deeper. Both could be good?
To create a unique angle, an idea I love is incorporating mini-tutorials or hands-on demos.
Finally, definitely keep the "Tastemaker" section and your article summaries — both are working great.

Thanks Greg! That feedback is very helpful and I'll make sure to incorporate.
