I agree, esp with ML models being where they are. For people writing blogs/articles it’s a similar problem - how do you stand out against the noise?

Honestly I don’t have answers but here’s a few ways I’ve found cool people:

- via “slow-grow” communities like lobste.rs

- if someone writes a good comment or tweet or whatever, check out if they have a blog

- Sometimes I subscribe to a bunch of things that seem promising, and then follow a “three strikes and they’re out” policy to extend the reach

- start reading papers from conferences. It’s a heavier format than blogs, but it’s reviewed and novel, at least if you pick good conferences.
