X Daily Report: AI-Powered Twitter Intelligence for the AI Community

TL;DR

X Daily Report aggregates posts from a curated list of top AI researchers, company accounts, and paper authors — uses an LLM to rank posts by novelty and information value — and outputs a structured daily digest with categories: research papers, hot takes, product launches, hiring, events.

The 10-Second Pitch

• Curated AI account list — pre-loaded with 300+ high-signal AI Twitter accounts
• LLM-powered ranking — ranks posts not by engagement but by information novelty
• Structured digest output — JSON or Markdown, categorised by topic
• Daily email or Slack delivery — optional push to email or Slack channel each morning
• Filter by subtopic — AI safety, LLMs, robotics, hardware, startups
• Free tier uses the free X scraper mode; paid tier uses the official X API

Setup in 2 Steps

1. Install and configure:

npm install -g x-daily-report
x-daily-report configure --accounts ./ai-accounts.txt

2. Set your digest delivery:

digest:
  format: markdown
  delivery:
    - type: slack
      webhook: your_slack_webhook

filters:
  include_topics:
    - LLMs
    - AI safety
  exclude_topics:

3. Run or schedule:

x-daily-report run  # one-shot
x-daily-report serve  # runs daily via cron

Prompt to test it:

Give me today's AI Twitter digest for topics: LLMs, AI safety. Show me the top 5 most novel posts with engagement stats.

Why This Beats the Algorithmic Feed

The algorithmic X feed is designed to maximize engagement, not information value. A flame war between two ML researchers will outrank a genuinely important paper announcement. The LLM ranking in this tool explicitly penalises high engagement + low novelty (flame wars, dunking) and rewards direct links to papers, repositories, or blog posts.

Pros / Cons

Verdict

If you are an AI practitioner and you rely on Twitter for staying current, the algorithmic feed is actively costing you time and accuracy. X Daily Report turns Twitter into a research intelligence tool.
