How do I evaluate the endless stream of new AI tools without drowning?

Accept that nobody can keep up, the winning move is a filter, not more consumption. Start from a real friction point in your own work (not from a tool's launch video), trial one tool at a time on a real task for a week, and follow two or three trusted practitioner sources for 15 minutes a day instead of every launch thread. If a tool doesn't stick after a week, or solves a problem you won't still have in a year, drop it without guilt.
