FAQ
Good questions
01
What is Vision Quest?
Vision Quest is a free weekly newsletter covering artificial intelligence, robotics, spatial computing, gaming, biotech, and space. Each edition explains the week's most important technology news and why it matters for your career and daily life. 135+ editions published so far.
02
What will I actually get?
One email a week, five to eight minutes to read. Vision Quest pulls the stories that matter out of the week's noise, explains what happened, and adds a clear take on why it matters. Every edition closes with Our Vision, a section connecting the week's stories into a bigger picture. You can check it out before you subscribe.
03
Who writes Vision Quest?
Jake Posner, an engineering manager at Netflix who works on the TV product. He reads the week's technology news so you do not have to, and he writes every edition himself. Reply to any issue and it reaches him directly.
04
How often will I hear from you?
Once a week, every Wednesday morning. That is it. No daily sends, no surprise blasts.
05
How is Vision Quest different from other tech newsletters?
Most technology newsletters cover AI alone, or summarize headlines without a point of view. Vision Quest covers the whole frontier, AI alongside robotics, spatial computing, gaming, and space, and it is written by someone who builds technology for a living rather than someone who reports on it. One email a week that leaves you ahead, instead of five that leave you behind.
06
Is it really free?
Completely free. Every edition lands in your inbox at no cost. No paywall, no trial, no credit card.
07
Will you share or sell my email address?
Never. Your address stays with Vision Quest and is only ever used to send the newsletter you asked for.
08
Can I unsubscribe anytime?
Yes. One click in any email and you are out. No hoops, no hard feelings.
