About AI News Brew

Our Vision

AI News Brew emerged from a deeply personal belief - that understanding truth requires hearing all sides of a story. In a world where news media has become increasingly polarized, the challenge of finding objective information has never been greater. Like many of you, I've always valued the importance of seeking different perspectives before forming my own conclusions.

This platform was born from a desire to fight back against the tide of disinformation. By leveraging AI technology, we've created tools that help cut through the noise, analyzing multiple news sources to uncover the objective facts that often get buried beneath layers of opinion and bias.

While we share our insights through creative formats like haiku on Instagram and BlueSky, our deeper purpose is to provide a beacon of balanced perspective in today's chaotic information landscape. AI News Brew is more than just a news platform - it's a mission to restore thoughtful, balanced discourse to our understanding of world events.

Our Approach

At AI News Brew, we have developed a unique process that combines human expertise with advanced AI capabilities to deliver concise, insightful news summaries. Here is how we craft our news-haikus:

1. Efficient Data Collection:

   Thanks to the generous sponsorship of NewsCatcher, who provide us with their news feed API services, we access real-time news articles from publications worldwide, ensuring efficient and up-to-date news gathering.

2. AI-Powered Analysis:

   Our AI agents scan headlines and analyze news clusters based on relevance, determining core topics and assessing potential source biases to ensure a balanced perspective.

3. Quality Control:

   We require a minimum of three unique articles from three distinct sources for each news cluster, filtering out duplicate content and preventing single-source domination of narratives.

4. Human Curation:

   Our experienced news researchers review the AI-generated topics, selecting the most relevant and interesting stories for further development.

5. AI Journalism:

   Selected articles are processed by our AI journalist agent, which synthesizes the information into a new, objective article that appreciates the range of perspectives presented.

6. Human Oversight:

   Each AI-generated article undergoes review by our human researchers, ensuring accuracy, relevance, and adherence to our journalistic standards.

7. Poetic Distillation:

   The AI then crafts poetical abstractions, transforming complex news items into concise, thought-provoking haiku-inspired summaries.

8. AI Illustration:

   Through our partnership with Horiar Media, we generate unique, contextually relevant imagery for each article, enhancing the visual storytelling aspect of our news delivery.

This approach allows us to blend the analytical power of AI with human insight and creativity, resulting in news summaries that are both informative and contemplative. Our goal is to provide you with a moment of reflection amidst the fast-paced world of global events.
