OpenReview
A free, open platform where machine-learning researchers submit and peer-review papers in public. Much of the field's conference review (including major AI venues) runs on it, and anyone can read the papers, reviews and rebuttals.

A free, open platform where machine-learning researchers submit and peer-review papers in public. Much of the field's conference review (including major AI venues) runs on it, and anyone can read the papers, reviews and rebuttals.
Epoch AI report on a spatial reasoning benchmark built around finding mistakes in photos of partially assembled IKEA furniture — a proxy for economically important visual reasoning tasks like repair work. Top scores jumped from 28% to 80% in 10 months; Chinese open-weight models trail the frontier by about 7 months.
The free research library and blog of Snorkel AI, the company spun out of Stanford's Snorkel project on programmatic labelling. The papers and posts explain how training data for AI models is actually built — labelling, evaluation sets, and the 'environments' used to train agents. Useful if you want to understand the unglamorous data work behind model quality, which is where a lot of the real jobs are.
Why I recommend it: Research and blog posts are free to read with no signup. Read it for the how, not the verdict: Snorkel sells data services to frontier AI labs, so posts arguing that better data beats bigger models are also a sales case. Everything else on the site is a paid enterprise product — 'request dataset samples' means a sales call.
An essay arguing for building a large model of the natural world — weather, oceans, ecosystems — as its own kind of general intelligence, separate from language models.
Why I recommend it: One argument, well written, worth reading as a counterweight to the LLM-only view of where AI is heading. It is a manifesto, not peer-reviewed research.
Stanford professor who built ImageNet, co-directs Stanford's Human-Centered AI institute and co-founded the AI4ALL diversity pipeline program. Her faculty page collects the work; her Google Scholar list has the papers themselves.
From the site: Fei-Fei Li is part of Stanford Profiles, official site for faculty, postdocs, students and staff information (Expertise, Bio, Research, Publications, and more). The site facilitates research and collaboration in academic endeavors.
Why I recommend it: Start with ImageNet if you want to understand why the last decade of AI happened when it did. Google Scholar refuses automated visits, so that link may show no picture here.
Microsoft's research division: published papers, open datasets and tools, plus its internship and residency programs.
From the site: Explore research at Microsoft, a site featuring the impact of research along with publications, products, downloads, and research careers.
Why I recommend it: The publications are free to read and the programs page lists real entry routes into research work. Both are more useful than the marketing pages.
Montreal research institute founded by Yoshua Bengio: publications, research teams, and programs for students and visiting researchers.
From the site: Mila is a Montreal-based artificial intelligence research institute that brings together researchers from Université de Montréal, McGill University, Polytechnique Montréal and HEC Montréal.
Why I recommend it: Check the students and programs pages if you want to move toward research work. Academic institutes publish their entry routes more openly than companies do.
Yann LeCun's position paper arguing that today's language models are the wrong architecture, and sketching what he thinks should replace them. Free to read.
Why I recommend it: The serious technical case against scaling language models further. Dense, but it is the argument itself rather than a summary of it.
A free explorer for new arXiv research with plain-language paper summaries, topic pages and video overviews, so you can follow AI research without reading raw papers.
From the site: Your first stop to discover and learn about new arXiv research. Detailed paper summaries, video overviews, and more — no prompting required.
Why I recommend it: The fastest way I know to keep up with AI research when you are not a researcher. Free to browse.
TypeSafe AI announcement from founder Diogo Almeida (formerly OpenAI) introducing System One models and Jev, aimed at cheaper automation rather than better chat.
Why I recommend it: Worth skimming to track where new AI labs are placing bets — useful context for interviews at AI companies.
Research-driven lab studying memory and judgment in AI agents, publishing work on agent memory systems.
Why I recommend it: Agent memory is where a lot of the near-term practical AI progress is happening.
Accessible breakdowns of AI and machine learning research papers for a general audience. Hosted by Károly Zsolnai-Fehér.
In plain terms: This YouTube channel offers simple video breakdowns of artificial intelligence and machine learning research papers. You can watch these quick guides to stay informed about new AI developments and understand how the technology is evolving.
Why I recommend it: Short, visual, and it makes research feel approachable.
