I'd be wary of programmatic lists that claim to track the most important/popular recent papers. There's a ridiculous amount of hype/propaganda and citation hacking surrounding new AI research, making it hard to discern what will truly stand the test of time. Tomas Mikolov just posted about this:

It doesn't claim to track the most important recent papers. It's very clear and upfront that it aims to track the most trending recent papers. It's even in the title of the website. There's no claim of permanent importance.
Thank you. You're right. I edited my comment so it refers to "important/popular" instead.
