Rarely Serious
Powered by good coffee and a bad mood
AI coverage — weekly

Sharp takes on artificial intelligence, for people who are tired of being told to panic.

Every two weeks, a researched, evidence-backed issue that looks at what AI is actually doing — not what the think pieces say it will do in fifteen years. We track the hype, the fear merchants, and the occasional thing that is genuinely worth paying attention to.

Pro-technology. Anti-panic. Allergic to corporate optimism and apocalypse marketing in equal measure.

An issue that treats you like an adult.

First issue arriving soon. Subscribe and you won't miss it.

We are not neutral. Nobody credible is.

AI coverage has two flavors right now: breathless hype from people with equity, and apocalypse theater from people with book deals. Both are wrong often enough to be worth ignoring.

The evidence is more interesting than the narrative. That's the whole premise.

Rarely Serious is written for people who use these tools, follow this space, and want to know what is actually happening — sourced, argued, and not dressed up in the kind of breathless prose that makes you feel like you're reading a press release.
