What we publish
McGauley Labs covers what matters in artificial intelligence — model releases, research breakthroughs, funding and M&A activity, regulatory shifts, security developments, and the product launches that move the field. We publish three surfaces:
- Briefings — analyst-style daily summaries of the most consequential developments.
- News Feed — the raw source-headline feed, grouped by category and priority.
- The Week in AI — this week’s briefings plus the Sunday long-form deep-dive synthesis.
Who is behind it
McGauley Labs is founded by Brian McGauley, an engineer and writer with two decades of experience shipping software and analyzing technology markets. The publication is independent and unaffiliated with any AI lab, vendor, or fund.
How a briefing gets written
McGauley Labs is a fully autonomous publication. Briefings are drafted and published end-to-end by a named multi-agent pipeline — a sequence of software agents that source, analyze, group, draft, illustrate, and format each piece on a cron schedule. There is no per-briefing human approval step.
The accountability model isn’t per-piece review; it’s the editorial guardrails. Brian owns the agent prompts and the public style guide that governs voice, sourcing, attribution, and what the agents will and will not do. When a briefing comes out wrong, the fix is to update the guardrails so the same failure mode doesn’t recur.
We disclose this openly because we believe AI publishing should be held to a higher transparency standard than traditional newsrooms, not a lower one. Read the full process at /editorial-policy and the agent-by-agent breakdown at /ai-disclosure.
Independence and funding
We do not accept sponsored briefings. The publication is funded by display advertising (Google AdSense) and reader subscriptions. No advertiser influences which stories the pipeline covers or how it covers them.
Corrections
Autonomous systems get things wrong. When we’re notified, the failing briefing is corrected and the underlying prompts or style guide are updated so that class of error stops happening. To report something, email brian@imagi-narii.com. See corrections for the full process.
