AI Researchers on Twitter
The researchers, lab engineers, and technical founders whose posts move the AI conversation: model releases, agents, evals, and what actually works.
New AI research usually shows up here before it shows up anywhere else. These are the people who train the models, run the labs, and publish the benchmarks, pulled from the profiles that keep surfacing in our curated AI stream.
