ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Models, compute and the systems being built on both.
What is wrong with AI coverage today?
AI coverage is broken. Most publications cover the same three things: whatever OpenAI announced this week, a think piece about AGI, and a listicle of AI tools. The signal-to-noise ratio is catastrophic.
At The Best Blog Ever, AI coverage is built around one priority: understanding the technology well enough to know what's real.
What AI topics does this site cover?
We cover large language models, AI agents, AI automation, machine learning architecture, and the AI startups building real infrastructure.
We track which AI business models are defensible versus those that will get commoditized the moment a frontier lab ships a new model.
New to the field? Start with our clear, visual guides: The 5 Essential Machine Learning Algorithms (with animations) and the practical Building Your First ML Model step-by-step project.
How is AI news curated here?
AI news on this site is curated, not aggregated. We don't publish every announcement. We publish analysis of the announcements that change the picture.
The future of AI is not a settled question. AI robotics, embodied intelligence, and multimodal architectures are open research frontiers — and we cover them as such.
Latest Analysis

The Definitive Index of Superintelligence
As frontier AI laboratories converge on post-AGI systems, empirical evaluation requires primary-source benchmarks, hardware cluster profiling, and alignment verification.
Key Takeaways
- The Definitive Index of Superintelligence provides an independent, primary-source benchmark suite evaluating frontier AI models, compute clusters, and post-AGI infrastructure.
- Unlike marketing leaderboards, the index evaluates systems across five rigorous tiers: silicon hardware, thermal energy, model weights, agentic orchestration, and alignment.
- A curated directory of 57 technical guides and 185 task-specific prompts delivers empirical telemetry for enterprise architects and technical researchers.
