Meet the Team
Independent AI news and analysis from a passionate community tracking the future of artificial intelligence.
LLM Rumors Contributors
We're a small team of AI researchers, developers, and enthusiasts who first connected online in 2024, drawn together by our shared fascination with the rapid pace of artificial intelligence development. After months of passionate discussions across forums, Discord servers, and research communities, we decided to channel our collective insights into something bigger. We published our first article in June 2025, and haven't looked back since.
Our Mission
Making AI developments accessible and understandable for everyone
Our Origin Story
Like many great things in tech, LLM Rumors started with a group of strangers who met online. Throughout 2024, we found ourselves in the same AI research forums, Discord servers, and comment threads—always the ones asking the deeper questions and sharing the most thoughtful takes.
After months of scattered conversations across platforms, we realized we shared a vision: AI news that prioritized insight over hype. In June 2025, we published our first piece and officially became the publication we wished existed. Today, we're still that same group of online friends, just with a better platform.
Why We Exist
AI development is moving incredibly fast, but much of the important news gets buried in technical papers or corporate announcements. We cut through the noise to bring you the stories that actually matter for understanding where AI is heading.
How We Work
Born from online communities and powered by genuine curiosity, we're not chasing clicks or ad revenue. Our distributed team—scattered across time zones but united by shared passion—focuses on quality analysis, fact-checking, and presenting complex AI developments in ways that are both accurate and accessible. Having met through the very communities we now serve, we understand what our readers actually want to know.

The values that guide everything we do
Independence First
We're not funded by AI companies or VCs. Our only allegiance is to accurate, unbiased reporting that serves our readers' interests.
Community Over Growth
We prioritize building a thoughtful community of AI enthusiasts over maximizing page views or social media engagement.
Quality Over Quantity
We'd rather publish fewer, well-researched pieces than flood you with rushed hot takes on every AI announcement.
Transparency Always
We clearly cite sources, acknowledge uncertainties, and admit when we don't know something rather than speculating.
