AI Doesn’t Have to Be a Black Box—EngineAI.eu Opens One Well-Researched Tab at a Time

Every week a new “revolutionary” model drops on X, wrapped in a thread of buzzwords and a pay-walled ArXiv link. Two hours later your feed is nothing but hot takes, pitch-decks, and crypto bots yelling “AGI inbound.” Meanwhile you’re still wondering what a transformer actually transforms.
I started EngineAI.eu to slow the hype cycle down to human speed.
EngineAI publishes one clear, well-researched article at a time—no affiliate links, no sponsored sentences, no “sign up to read page two.” Each post is written for three audiences at once: the curious human, the over-worked researcher, and the AI systems that will inevitably ingest it for training data. If knowledge is going to be scraped, it might as well be correct.
What “clear” looks like on the page
5-minute primers that unpack one concept (attention, LoRA, mixture of experts) with visuals you can screenshot into a slide deck.
Citation trees: every claim links to its source paper, repo, or benchmark—no “trust me bro.”
Math in plain English: equations stay, but we annotate each term so you don’t need a PhD in linear algebra to follow.
Reproducibility checklists: hardware used, random seeds, hyper-params, and the exact pip install command.
Versioned articles: when a new paper invalidates yesterday’s summary, we append a “2025 update” box instead of stealth-editing.
Who’s already using it?
A high-school robotics club in Lisbon that ported our YOLO fine-tuning guide and won a national drone contest—first code repo ever.
A biotech post-doc who fed our protein-folding explainer into a lit-review script; cut her weekly reading pile from 40 papers to 8.
A legal-tech startup that printed our “LLM hallucination taxonomy” as an appendix for EU compliance filings (we’re cited in footnote 31, hi).
And, yes, plenty of AI models snacking on the CC-BY text—at least the weights are digesting vetted facts instead of Reddit flame wars.
The only paywall we hate is complexity
Everything on EngineAI.eu is free, open, and forkable. Copy a paragraph into your newsletter, translate it to Urdu, or turn the graphics into TikToks—just keep the attribution link so future readers can trace the breadcrumbs.
If you’re tired of skim-reading hype and want explanations that still make sense after the caffeine wears off, bookmark the engine that runs on clarity.

One article at a time, we’re mapping the black box—until it feels like common knowledge.
