Here are some information sources I find valuable enough to share them to random strangers looking at my webpage 😶🌫️ (Under constant construction and update)
Useful links
A must read, not only for PhD students, neither just for ML students.
A delightful way to visually understand how GPs work.
A daily newsletter regarding recent AI progress.
All sorts of podcasts
I feel like knowing someone’s YouTube feed gives you an enormous deal of information about that person, perhaps even too much 🫥. Here, I share some of my favorite sources, spanning a wide range of domains I care about.
Physiology, Biology, Health…
This has to be one of the most famous podcast these days. Andrew Huberman is a Professor of Neurobiology and Ophthalmology at Stanford, but nowadays mainly hosts a podcast, the Huberman Lab. Among other things, the show features all sorts of guests talking about a broad range of topics, from strength training, immunology, meditation, circadian rhythms, you name it. Many of these topics are quite complex, and the true strength of the show is to digest them in understanble chunks for us.
One of the most fascinating episodes to me features Zachary Knight’s (UCSF, Physiology Professor), on the science of Hunger, and a great introduction to the (soon-to-become) trillion dollar industry that GLP1 agonists represent.
This one is definitely more oriented towards longevity, healthcare and what not. The host is Peter Attia, whose name since appeared multiple times in the Epstein Files, so the podcast took a big hit, although completely justified. Still, the show involves incredibly knowledgeable guests.
I would for instance recommand this one on Thyroid function, a small endocrine gland that definitely does not receive all the credit it should, and is probably not properly managed by a sizeable amount of the population.
AI
Not only about AI, far from it, but feature many of the big names there (eg Jensen Huang NVIDIA’s CEO, Demis Hassabis, Dario Amodei…). A good example would be n.490 - State of AI in 2026
This one is also not 100% AI, but mostly. Morevoer, the host is more knowledgeable than Lex Friedman regarding AI matters, so I would say it makes up for more challenging conversations. It was actually even mentioned during NeurIPS’25 before Richard Sutton’s keynote talk! Here, I have to recommand Karpathy’s appearance, from late 2025.
