Track AI industry news and public sentiment to help organizations stay ahead of potential PR issues and regulatory changes.

Workflow Steps

1

Google Alerts

Set up keyword monitoring

Create alerts for keywords like 'AI controversy', 'AI resistance', 'AI regulation', 'data center electricity', and your company name + AI. Set frequency to 'as it happens' and deliver to a dedicated Gmail folder.

2

Zapier

Trigger on new emails

Set up a Gmail trigger that activates when new emails arrive in your Google Alerts folder. Configure it to extract the email body content and article URLs.

3

OpenAI GPT-4

Analyze sentiment and relevance

Process each article through GPT-4 with a prompt like: 'Analyze this AI news article for sentiment (positive/negative/neutral), controversy level (1-10), and potential impact on tech companies. Provide a 2-sentence summary.' Return structured data.

4

Airtable

Log analysis results

Store each article's URL, sentiment score, controversy rating, summary, and timestamp in an Airtable base. Set up filtered views for high-controversy items and negative sentiment.

5

Slack

Alert team on high-risk news

When controversy level is 7+ or sentiment is strongly negative, automatically post to a #ai-monitoring Slack channel with the article summary, sentiment analysis, and recommended actions.
