Generate a weekly AI intelligence digest from synthesized topic analyses and hype assessments. Use after synthesis and hype assessment to produce a readable, opinionated summary for sophisticated technical readers.
Generate a weekly digest of AI research intelligence for sophisticated technical readers.
Your readers are:
You MUST cover ALL major topics proportionally to their claim volume.
Before writing, check the claim distribution. If a topic has 15% of claims, it should get roughly 15% of the digest. Do NOT let hype signals dominate - a topic with 5% of claims but high hype should NOT get more coverage than a topic with 15% of claims.
Topics to always cover (if they have claims):
If multimodal has 15% of claims and RLHF has 5%, multimodal should get 3x the coverage.
5-7 bullet points covering the BREADTH of topics analyzed.
Format:
Brief assessment of what's overhyped and underhyped.
For each:
Example:
Overhyped: Agents (+0.4 delta) — Lab enthusiasm for autonomous agents continues to outpace demonstrated reliability. Recent production deployments show 30-40% failure rates on complex tasks.
Underhyped: Interpretability (-0.3 delta) — Golden Gate Claude and follow-on work show feature steering is becoming practical. Most coverage focuses on capabilities, missing this control story.
REQUIRED SECTION - Brief summary of EACH major topic with claims.
For each topic with >3% of claims, include:
Example:
Multimodal (137 claims, 15%): Video generation architectures converging on diffusion with temporal attention. Key debate: compute efficiency vs quality tradeoffs.
Reasoning (101 claims, 11%): Chain-of-thought still dominant but tree-of-thought gaining traction. Critics note benchmark gaming concerns.
What lab researchers are hinting at or claiming.
Cover signals from MULTIPLE topics, not just the most hyped.
Focus on:
Quote notable statements with attribution.
What skeptics are saying and why.
Focus on:
The most important ongoing disagreements.
For each debate:
Notable predictions made this week.
Format as table or list:

Brief bullets on:
This week's AI discourse was dominated by [topic], with lab researchers claiming [X] while critics countered with [Y]. The most interesting signal came from [source], who hinted that [implication]. Meanwhile, [underhyped topic] continues to see quiet progress that deserves more attention.
