Ask HN: How do you keep up with news in a particular sector?

2•doruk101•2h ago
I would like to keep up with news in a particular sector. I considered using an RSS reader, but with advances in LLMs, I am wondering whether anyone uses an LLM for this reliably.

Do you pull from and summarize a bunch of news sources? How have you set it up, and has it been reliable?

What’s the sector?
doruk101•2h ago
Energy, power generation, and wholesale energy markets. That's what I am looking into now. But I would like to diversify it as well if I find a reliable setup.

Industries often have industry publications (you can google for it). In addition, reading the financial news can give you a good pulse on the goings on.

Are you finding that you're not able to find good news sources?

ericand•2h ago
I'm interested in this as well. Also what kind of news outlets? I find that traditional news media is often behind a community of insiders if you can find them on Twitter or something like it.
doruk101•1h ago
Yeah, I agree. I feel like the signal-to-noise ratio in traditional news can be quite low too. I would prefer a potential solution that is able to also pull opinionated commentary (blogs, and Twitter so on) from people close to the industry.

I don't believe simply asking a model to search through news sites and summarize occasionally would be helpful.

If RSS feeds are available then perhaps do that and get the LLM to read those if its too much info, rather than llm going to x number of websites.
