The News Radar is the lab’s daily scan of free public sources, produced by AI. It reads two channels: AI methods and news — the tools behind the lab’s data work — and racing, handicapping and betting, drawn from the industry’s own outlets: Brisnet, Equibase, the Daily Racing Form, E-Ponies, Today’s Racing Digest and Thoroughbred Daily News, plus sportsbook, casino and lottery coverage. On Saturday, November 14, 2026 it scanned 3105 items from 20 sources, kept 225 inside its 48-hour window, removed 37 duplicate(s), and kept 30 items. Every headline below belongs to its publisher and links to the original; the line under each item states the signal that kept it.

The radar scores every item by a published rule: a source weight, weighted keyword signals matched as exact token sequences, a recency score, and a Hacker News points bonus. It keeps the top 15 items in each channel. The full rule and the source list are documented in the radar’s project notes. Google News links are Google’s redirect URLs, exactly as its feeds provide them; they open the publisher’s article in a browser.
Sources scanned this run: Hacker News, arXiv cs.AI, arXiv cs.LG, Hugging Face Blog, OpenAI News, Google Research Blog, Simon Willison, GitHub Trending (RSS mirror), Thoroughbred Daily News, arXiv stat.AP, Google News: horse racing handicapping, Google News: Brisnet, Google News: Equibase, Google News: Daily Racing Form, Google News: E-Ponies, Google News: Today's Racing Digest, Google News: horse racing workouts, Google News: sports betting, Google News: casino gambling, Google News: lottery statistics.
Outlets that offer no working free feed from this network — the Paulick Report and BloodHorse among them — are not scanned; nothing is carried from a source the radar cannot read.
