- WHY DID I DO THIS?
- I always get distracted by the plethora of news channels around. To reduce distraction, I decided to schedule a news debrief each morning across the topics I actually care about, sourced only from news outlets I trust.
- WHAT TOOLS WERE USED?
- I used Claude Cowork with WebSearch and a curated source whitelist (BBC, Reuters, Financial Times, Bloomberg, Nature, Wired, and a few others).
- HOW DOES THE AUTOMATION RUN?
- Each morning at 9am, Claude pulls two to three stories per category, including World News, Tech, Artificial Intelligence, Science, Quantum Computing, Sustainability, Climate, and Finance. The ouput is a short summary and a linked source. Anything older than 24 hours or from a non-credible outlet is filtered out.
