Sources of Testing / Tech / AI Information

AI Chapter
The tech world is exploding (thanks to AI); Also, sources of information are exploding (Again, thanks to AI).
Today I was discussing with Simon during our call for insights session, how it's getting harder than ever to really find good information, as a lot of the material out there is not that good. I will be making a checklist of how I filter good information from various sources.
I use multiple sources to do my research, learning, finding new facts, and increasing my knowledge by learning from the best resources out there. As a starting step, I thought to start with mapping out my various sources of testing and tech information. This is just an inspiration. I've not listed each and every item at the last level, but rather various categories from which I pick up data. I've also shared certain examples within each category.
What are your top sources of testing and tech information? And is there something that I'm missing, but I should be looking at?

Six months ago, I set up a daily Perplexity task to generate summaries of topics of interest. Here is an example prompt/result from a couple of days ago https://www.perplexity.ai/search/fetch-the-latest-information-n-qTY2NGAQTCCB6GiRIhNr9Q
I have tried using OpenClaw for a similar task for a couple of weeks, but because it requires API LLM access, it incurred additional costs.
Yesterday, I set up a daily scheduled task in Claude Cowork for a daily digest, included in the subscription.
Rahul Parwal
That's an interesting approach, Dragan.
Setting up recurring tasks is a good way to stay up to date with the research, but the only limitations that I see are that it can only scrape publicly available information.
A lot of information (such as the one in #MoTaverse) will not be available imo.

Oh, nice idea Dragan. I will give that a shot for my community work :)
I've just set something up with Google Gemini.
Is there a difference between Perplexity and Gemini?
Rahul Parwal
Perplexity is good for research. It has a toolchain for research and source verification with itself. But Gemini is improving it.
Also, Perplexity can allow you to use Gemini or other models (eg. GPT or Claude) so more options.
