I often discover interesting newsletters by seeing other people tweet about them, mention them in a podcast or even link to them from another newsletter - example: https://cronyclecovid19.substack.com/p/corona-daily-280220 which is a newish Coronavirus daily update.

Is there a better way? Does anyone use a better tool to discover good newsletters? Where is the hackernews or Apple Podcasts tool for newsletters?

One of the projects I may be getting involved with at work has a strong AI component. Not only that but this is a topic that seems will only be if increasing importance in life. Is there any book/website that gives a good intro and/or current state of play of the field for someone who's a scientist but has never taken a CompSci class in their life? It's something I'm interested in, plus would rather not look like an idiot when talking to my colleagues.
