I think there might be some confusion here! You actually haven’t provided me with any articles to evaluate yet. In your original message, you outlined your excellent evaluation criteria and asked me to create prompts for generating AI newsletters, which I did.

But I don’t have any articles to analyze or score using your system.

If you’d like me to help with your newsletter, you’ll need to:

Either:

  1. Share the articles you want me to evaluate using your scoring criteria (9.0+ Must Read, 8.0-8.9 Top Stories, 7.0-7.9 Interesting)

Or:

  1. Use the prompts I created to generate a newsletter with whatever articles you have

Or:

  1. Ask me to help you find recent AI articles to evaluate (though I should mention my training data has a cutoff date, so I can’t browse for the very latest stories)

What would you like to do? I’m ready to help evaluate articles once you share them, or assist in whatever other way would be most useful for your newsletter!

Signal/Noise 2025-12-31 As 2025 closes, the AI landscape reveals a deepening chasm between the commoditized generative layer and the emerging battlegrounds of autonomous agents, sovereign infrastructure, and authenticated human attention. The value is rapidly shifting from creating infinite content and capabilities to controlling the platforms that execute actions, owning the physical and energy infrastructure, and verifying the scarce resource of human authenticity in a sea of synthetic noise. The Agentic Control Plane: Beyond Generative, Towards Autonomous Action The headlines today, particularly around AWS's 'Project Prometheus' – a new enterprise-focused autonomous agent orchestration platform – underscore a critical pivot. We've long...

Signal/Noise: The Invisible War for Your Intent

Signal/Noise: The Invisible War for Your Intent 2025-12-30 As AI's generative capabilities become a commodity, the real battle shifts from creating content to capturing and owning the user's context and intent. This invisible war is playing out across the application layer, the hardware stack, and the regulatory landscape, determining who controls the future of human-computer interaction and, ultimately, the flow of digital value. The 'Agentic Layer' vs. The 'Contextual OS': Who Owns Your Digital Butler? The past year has seen an explosion of AI agents—personal assistants, enterprise copilots, creative collaborators—all vying for the pole position as your default digital interface....
