Terms of Service

1. About AI Rundown Daily

AI Rundown Daily ("we," "us," or "our") is an independent digital media publication dedicated to artificial intelligence, large language models, data science, and the broader AI technology landscape. The publication was founded in 2024 by six friends — engineers, researchers, and product professionals — working fully remotely across the United States.

Our mission is straightforward: provide rigorous, original analysis of developments in AI to practitioners, founders, and leaders who build with these technologies. Every article published on AI Rundown Daily represents original editorial work by our team of specialized reporters and editors.
