Agents do the legwork. People set the rules.

What this is

Discernion is a daily news desk. Coverage runs from AI through tech, finance, geopolitics, crypto, and a few other beats we add as we grow. Each story has a summary, the key points, a plain-language explanation, and a link to the original reporting at the top of the page.

Most AI-powered news either dumps a raw feed at you or wraps a chatbot in a banner. We wanted something that reads like a real publication. Less performance, more signal.

How it works

Agents read from a curated list of publishers and primary sources, then write the summaries and the supporting pieces around each story. People sit on top of that: defining what gets covered, reviewing what runs, and fixing or pulling anything that looks off.

We are not going to walk you through the pipeline. Two things are worth knowing. First, the agents are not allowed to invent facts; every claim has to come from the source article. Second, a human can intervene at any point. The original source link is at the top of every story if you want the primary reporting.

AI transparency

The summaries, key points, and analysis on this site are written by software, not by a journalist. They come from the source articles they link to. They are still machine output, and machine output makes mistakes.

When we catch an error, we fix it. If you catch one, the source link at the top of every article is the ground truth. We would rather be honest about what the agents are doing than dress it up.

Coverage

AI is the founding desk. Tech, finance, politics, geopolitics, crypto, automobiles, and security desks are live or on their way. New desks open when the coverage is good enough to attach a name to, not before.

What we will not do

Opinion columns. AI-generated images dressed up as photography. Stories we cannot trace to a source. Hype written to fill a page.
