AI RSS and OPML Pack: Import Five Engineering Feeds

ZarifZarif
|

This pack is a small, portable reading list for AI engineering. It contains five public RSS or Atom feeds, with no signup required. OPML stores subscription addresses; your reader fetches the articles from their publishers.

Last verified September 17, 2026. Rechecked monthly. Download OPML (5 available feeds from 5 listed sources). Entries without a public feed are listed below but excluded from the import.

Start with five

These sources cover experiments, applied methods, research foundations, open-model implementation and model analysis. The engineering blog directory includes additional writers to read directly.

  1. Simon Willison · Frequent short posts; skim weekly

    Read for inspectable experiments: prompts, outputs, small programs and links back to the release being tested. Useful when deciding what to try locally.

  2. Eugene Yan · Irregular technical articles; check monthly

    Read for the connection between an evaluation method and a product outcome, with detailed examples from retrieval, recommendations and LLM applications.

  3. Lil’Log — Lilian Weng · Occasional deep dives; keep in RSS

    Use the cited papers and technical explanations to understand a method before adopting its fashionable label. Best for a slower study session.

  4. Hugging Face Blog · Several times a week

    Models, libraries, datasets, and implementation notes for people who actually run weights.

  5. Sebastian Raschka’s Magazine · Monthly-ish

    Code-oriented LLM explanations and paper analysis you can re-run.

Import the pack

  1. Download the OPML file above and save it locally.
  2. Open your RSS reader’s subscription import or OPML import setting.
  3. Select the file and confirm the five subscriptions before importing.
  4. Put the feeds in one folder and check it once a week. Avoid notifications for every entry.

Readers label their menus differently. If your reader has no file import, add the feed addresses individually from the table below. Importing twice can create duplicates in some readers; inspect the preview before confirming.

The directory

Each feed returned successfully and parsed as RSS or Atom on September 17, 2026. That verifies the subscription endpoint, not every claim in every article. A quiet feed can still be valuable: infrequent essays are exactly what a reader helps you avoid missing.

Hamel Husain and Chip Huyen remain useful direct reads in the engineering blog directory. They are omitted from this pack: Hamel’s feed currently sends item links to the homepage, and the Chip Huyen feed’s newest item is from January 2025.

Keep the inbox small

Choose one article to investigate each week and archive the rest. When a feed stops updating, visit the publisher’s home page before deleting it: the feed may have moved. If an import fails, try adding the individual feed to distinguish a broken endpoint from an OPML parsing problem.

Prefer email? The newsletter directory offers another delivery format. Use Start here to connect the reading stack to a career or build project.

Every Thursday: five sources worth following in AI engineering, verified, with the reason. Three minutes to read.

Change log

  1. Added five working feeds with article destinations and checked recent items. Excluded one stale feed and one feed that points each item to the homepage.
