I love X. Over the last 19 years I built a set of lists of the tech industry. That's at docs.google.com/document/d/1… And what can you do with lists? So much. Have @Pokee_AI or your favorite AI agent platform (Pokee includes the X API in as standard feature so you don't have to pay extra). On Saturday I had it watch my Climate list and make an app where it showed all the storms across America. That took a few minutes. I also built a separate app that watched my news lists (about 14,000 people and organizations) and made me an app to watch news about the Iran war. Lists are the secret. They are purified content for your AIs to use to build new kinds of apps. Like this one, which shows you the best from the AI community here on X: alignednews.com/ai That site could not exist without lists. Why? The X API won't let you find everyone in the AI world (that site reads tens of thousands of posts from 40,000 people and 8,300 companies every day). I spent thousands of hours making the lists and give them to you for free. No one has a set of lists of tech and news like I do, so if you don't use my lists your apps won't be as good, at least about AI and tech (I have a list of all the world news outlets too). And these lists can do a number of things. My site creates a script so you can have @NotebookLM create you a podcast from today's news, for instance. Thanks to the many subscribers I have. I don't do much extra for them but they subsidize my work, which is expensive (I'm spending about $300 a day on X API charges to build Aligned News, something I can't do forever, so my agents are now helping me send notes to investors over on LinkedIn to shake the tree to see if there's some real business here making custom news and market analysis. Something else you can do with my lists. After all, I have lists of more than 10,000 investors here, so AI can tell you about investing trends, and a lot more too. I now get why Elon bought X. AI lets you get a lot more value out of X and in a way very few have really explored. If you are using AI to build new ways to look at X, let me know.
