About AI Lately

AI Lately reads artificial intelligence through the people who build it.

AI Lately covers artificial intelligence through the people who build it. Every hire, departure, promotion, paper, and filing carries a strategic message, and this publication exists to read it. The standing thesis sits in the name: AI is about people, and about what they have been up to lately.

Masthead

Kelly Dennis, Co-Editor and Lead Technical Analyst. She co-edits the publication and translates AI, cloud, and emerging technology into analysis for specialists and lay readers alike.

Ryan Elliott Dennis, Founder and Editor. He writes the opinion column, sets the editorial standards, and signs every correction. Reach the desk at editor@ailately.com.

AI Lately Desk is the byline on reported analysis. Pieces under that byline draw on public filings, company announcements, and reporting from publications of record, and each one lists its sources in AP style.

An automated newsdesk produces one daily report from vetted public sources: company newsrooms, SEC filings, public job boards, and arXiv. Those reports carry a visible label, pass the same house style checks as every other piece, and fall under the corrections policy in full.

Two sections

Articles hold the analysis: data-heavy pieces across every category of AI today, from hiring and agent infrastructure to compute, capital, policy, safety, and the crossover between web3 and AI. Each one carries its argument on cited evidence and names the people whose choices drive the story.

The Signal carries the weekly feed of the biggest hires in AI. One question governs every entry: what capability did this company just buy, and what does it imply about the next twelve months? Each move records person, destination, title, origin, date, and a public source, plus a confidence label of confirmed, reported, or inferred.

Method

Sources anyone can inspect form the base of the method. Department of Labor disclosure files for LCA and PERM filings show exact titles and wages by employer. SEC Form 8-K, Item 5.02, records executive appointments and departures at public companies. State WARN notices show contraction. Public job boards on Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby show intent before execution. Company newsrooms and arXiv show what people chose to say and publish. Reporting from Reuters, Bloomberg, The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, CNBC, TechCrunch, Axios, and The Information supplies the rest, always with a link.

Facts read as facts, and interpretation reads as interpretation. A departure gets reported as a destination and a date; the reason appears only with two independent sources or a document. Personal data on this site stays within a small allowlist: name, role, employer, public source, and date.

Independence

AI Lately holds zero equity, tokens, or advisory positions at any company it covers. Sponsors, when they arrive, will see an issue only after publication. Job listings, when they arrive, will carry a sponsored label and buy zero editorial consideration. The full standard lives on the editorial standards page.

For machines

Machines get their own doors: the site publishes llms.txt and llms-full.txt for language models, a JSON version of The Signal, an RSS feed, and a sitemap. Quote with attribution and a link to the canonical URL.
