# [Where will you get your news in 2026?](https://www.diamandis.com/blog/news-in-2026-futureloop-results)

 Written by [Peter H. Diamandis](https://www.diamandis.com/blog/author/peter-h-diamandis) | May 1, 2020

Six days ago, [I asked](https://www.diamandis.com/blog/impact-of-negative-news) our community to predict where you’ll get your news in 2026. Will it be….

1. Your Personal AI Assistant
2. A new platform you’ve never heard of
3. An existing news source
4. Social media
5. Print newspaper and magazines
6. Or a TV station?

An overwhelming majority of participants (over 50%) agreed, and the crowd verdict may surprise you! (See results below….)

**>>>** If you haven’t participated in the prediction poll yet, give it a try [**here**](https://futureloop.com/loop/1/query/271853335/)**.**

## Who won, and why?

Backed by over 56% of the crowd, a** “personal AI assistant”** won by a landslide.

… Here are the top 3 reasons why:

- “AI assistants are [emerging] and will scrape all other sources for personalized updates.”

- “I detest the agenda of broadcast networks. [Instead,] my assistant will dig broad and deep for news that interests me.”

- “[Personal AI Assistants will be able to] filter out nearly all ‘fake news’.”

But what about the runner-ups?

While a **new platform **(either one that is just emerging or yet to exist) garnered roughly *27% of the vote*, a remarkably small percentage of the crowd voted for an existing news source (7.3%), social media (3.86%), print (3.08%), and TV (1.86%).

## **Personalizing Your Own AI-Powered News Feed**

Three years ago, I set on a journey to create a Machine Learning platform to scrape the world’s news, science journals and social feeds every day to understand how exponential technologies are impacting specific topics and industries.

The end result is [FutureLoop](https://www.futureloop.com/convergence), a free service with the following mission…

Every day, FutureLoop scans* hundreds of thousands of articles and journals*:

- *Searching for news with ‘positive sentiment’ that is 'future-oriented'*
- Identifying stories of ‘converging exponential technologies’ that impact industries
- Scanning for high-quality, referenced sources* and validated stories*
- *Filtering out sensationalized and biased news*
- Performing these searches on specific ‘user-selected topics’
- Summarizing articles to* extract "****What it is****" and "****Why it's important****"*

Check out [***FutureLoop***](https://www.futureloop.com/)***. ***While the product is still in Beta, it’s powerful, high-quality and free.
