Squared is a weekly AI briefing with a simple filter: out of everything that happened, what actually matters — and what it means for you.
I’m Daniel Usvyat, founder of USQRD. I build production AI systems for a living, and most weeks the signal-to-noise ratio in AI is terrible. Squared is the filter I wish someone else published: a small number of things worth your attention, each with a plain answer to “so what does this mean for me?”
Two editions — pick what you receive
- Builder — for the people shipping it. What changed in AI engineering this week, what broke, and what’s worth adopting now rather than in six months.
- CXO / Leaders — for the people accountable for it. The developments that change a decision you’re about to make — buy vs build, where to place a bet, what to ignore.
You choose your sections when you subscribe, and you can change them any time in your account settings. Subscribe to one or both.
What you won’t get
No hype. No breathless model-launch coverage. No “top 10 AI tools” lists. If a week is quiet, I’ll say so rather than inflate it.
Everything here is free. Squared is published by USQRD — longer-form pieces live at usqrd.com/insights, and past issues at usqrd.com/squared.
