AI News That Actually Makes Sense
Hey. My name's Mike D, the author of Pithy Cyborg! I'm a certified nerd who somehow ended up writing a newsletter read by Microsoft heavy‑hitters, CEOs, PhDs, and an alarming number of people far smarter than me. I break down AI news without the jargon, the hype, or the headache. Just clear, pithy insights from someone who still can’t believe this many brilliant humans show up to read my thoughts each week. (The name of my newsletter is Pithy Cyborg | AI News Made Simple.)
Honestly… nothing. I spend most of my so‑called “free time” buried in tech stacks, combing through API logs like they’re ancient runes, lurking in midnight Discord dev chats, and trying to keep up with the firehose of new AI launches. I funnel all that chaos into a free newsletter because apparently this is my hobby now. I’m not available for consulting, speaking, advising, mentoring, or anything that requires me to be a functional human. I’m running on fumes and sheer curiosity at this point.
