Finding signal in all the AI noise

Kashfia Khan asked me for some tips and tricks to cur through all the AI noise on Linkedin. Like KK I struggle with it too. And I dont know if I have a good answer. But here it is anyway. I'm building workflows to solve the most annoying parts of my day. And packaging it as a vertical SaaS solution for others like me. 

This forces me to figure out which AI tools/people/sites actually matter.

I find nothing sharpens your focus like skin in the game. 

Building it as a company forces me to hunt for high-signal sources (hackernews, specific subreddits) and newsletters worth reading. My "follow list" gets a weekly pruning.

Solving real problems pushes me to experiment with tools that actually work, not just what's hyped.

Finally, you can't outsource developing your own tech perspective. Writing publicly on my website and on LinkedIn keeps me honest and sharpens my thinking through feedback (often privately shared!).

I am hoping that the combination of curating sources + hands-on building + solving real problems + public writing to sharpen thinking, will put me ahead of most conversations.

What's your approach? What do you find works really well for you?
