About AImpact.
AImpact is a personal, technical archive of AI breakthroughs from 2020 to today. It's not a news site, and it doesn't chase every announcement. It collects only what actually changed something concrete for people who work with software, systems, security.
Every entry is a short card, readable at two levels: a plain-language version for non-specialists, a technical one for those who want the detail. Always at least one official source.
The project is curated by Stefano Prandi. Drafts are AI-assisted from verified sources, then manually reviewed before publication. No entry goes out without a human pass.
Why this exists.
Two concrete reasons. One: to stay current in a structured way without depending on corporate newsletters or Twitter gossip — my own archive, organized the way I think. Two: in this field what you read is worth little; what you have built is worth everything. This site is the public proof that I have been following AI since 2020 with a method, in Italian and English, at two reading levels.
What this archive shows.
- ★
Curation, not aggregation: each entry is picked because it had concrete impact on IT/dev/sysadmin work — not because it trended on Twitter.
- ★
Dual reading level: every concept is explained both to a non-specialist and to a practitioner. The first cost in my job is translation between the two worlds.
- ★
Stack built from scratch: Astro + TypeScript + Tailwind + Docker, automated deploy, 2000+ pages generated at build. Not a WordPress blog.
- ★
Real cadence: 6+ years of coverage, 600+ entries, two languages. Provenance verified and labeled on every entry.

Sources at the bottom are always clickable. If you see 'Needs review', it's still being verified.
