Step 1 of 4 · How AI Radar works
One clear overview from dozens of sources
AI Radar monitors Czech and international sources every day, looking for changes that truly deserve attention.
MonitorsOfficial AI company blogs, specialist media, and research sources.
Selects and combinesFilters out information noise and combines articles about the same change into a single event.
Summarizes and explainsExplains significant events in English: what happened, why it matters and where the information comes from.
The result is a quick overview of what has actually changed in the AI world, rather than another stream of articles.
Use the CS/EN switch to read the same Radar in Czech or English. English content is published after its translation has been checked, so new and older items may appear later.
Everything you need to navigate the AI world
Today’s briefingAn overview of news from the past 24 hours and a main story when available. Beside them is Live · AI Flash, followed by research and links to other Radar sections. On mobile, the blocks appear one below another.
AI FlashAn ongoing feed of brief updates with an evidence status. Links lead to a Radar detail page when one is ready, otherwise to the original source. You can also find reset and outage histories here.
Practical applicationsWhat new tools and features can do, what you can try and what their actual impact could be.
Model selectionModel comparison by type of work, capabilities, price and speed.
Research and archiveA separate research overview, topic search and older events by date.
One event, everything that matters
Each row represents one event — not one article. At a glance, you can see its significance, credibility and main point.
Illustrative example, not a current news item.
