The AI Radar pane

AI Radar keeps a current read on the AI world without leaving your workspace. Open it with open AI Radar in the command bar, or turn on the radar pane in Settings → AI Radar.

Stories are sorted into four groups:

• Model releases — new models, versions and capability jumps
• Company moves — funding, acquisitions, pivots, partnerships
• Key people — hires, departures, founders and leadership
• Research & tools — papers, open source, agents and tooling

Each group shows its top 10; Show all N opens the rest, and the number beside the group name is how many it found in total.

Reading it

• Each story shows its title, which source it came from, and its age. Hover for a summary.
• Click a story and it opens inside Mastery HQ’s Browser pane, not your OS browser — your workspace stays intact.
• The header line reads N stories · X/15 sources · ago, so you always know how much of the picture you’re looking at and how fresh it is.
• Refresh (top left) re-reads every source immediately.

How it ranks

Recency does most of the work — this is a news feed, not an archive — but it’s weighted by who is speaking. A lab announcing its own model is the primary source and is scored above an article about that announcement, so a release post outranks same-day coverage of it. The same story reported by several outlets is collapsed to one entry, keeping the strongest copy.

A few of the labs publish no feed, so their newsroom page is read directly instead. Those items carry no reliable date, so they’re treated as about a week old — worth showing, never worth topping the list.

Good to know

• Sources are read live and need an internet connection. Each one is fetched independently, so a single failure is a missing slice rather than an empty radar; the line at the bottom names anything that didn’t answer.
• Results are cached for 10 minutes and survive closing and reopening the pane, so reopening it is instant and doesn’t re-hammer fifteen sites. Refresh bypasses the cache.
• Everything is filtered for AI relevance before it’s shown, because a company newsroom mixes model announcements with hiring posts and legal notices.
• Nothing in the last few weeks under a group means exactly that — the radar shows fewer items rather than padding with filler.
