Why follow AI leaders' moves and papers?
In AI, people are the technology. Which company a key researcher joins, or which lab they found, often turns into products, funding rounds and acquisitions months later. This page tracks job changes across frontier labs, new labs, academia, AI chips, and people in Korea and China.
Papers show what a person is focused on right now. We sort papers into 10 investable fields such as HBM & memory, GPUs & accelerators, inference efficiency, agents and robotics, and give a three-line summary — what, key result, why it matters — based on the abstract, with links to the original and PDF. This is information for finding ideas, not a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Who do you track?
Key researchers and executives at frontier labs (OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic, Meta and others), new labs, academia, AI chip companies, and in Korea and China. Executives who rarely publish are tracked for career moves only.
Q. Where does the data come from, and how often is it updated?
Papers come from Semantic Scholar and arXiv, and careers from Wikidata (CC0) plus official announcements and press reports, collected automatically every day. Only items checked and approved by the editor are published.
Q. Who writes the paper summaries?
An AI (Google Gemini) drafts each summary from the paper's abstract, and the editor checks it before publishing. Other languages are AI translations of the checked Korean summary. Always confirm exact figures and context in the original paper.
This page compiles published papers, official announcements and press reports for information only. Paper summaries are written by AI from the abstract and reviewed by the editor; they may differ from the original, so check the paper for anything important. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell any security or investment advice. Career moves cite official announcements or major press reports; some career records come from Wikidata (CC0). Summaries on this page were translated by AI from the editor-reviewed Korean version.
