Connect your **OpenAI** and **Gmail** accounts to n8n.\n2. Customize the list of RSS feeds in the “Set Tech News RSS Feeds” node.\n3. Update your interests and number of desired news items in the “Your Topics of Interest” node.\n4. Activate the workflow and let the automation run on schedule.\n\n---\n\n### Requirements\n* **OpenAI** credentials for embeddings and summarization\n* **Gmail** (or another email service) for sending the newsletter"

Swap in your own RSS feeds, or use an API-based news aggregator.\n* Replace the in-memory vector store with **Pinecone**, **Weaviate**, or another persistent vector DB for longer-term storage.\n* Adjust the agent's summarization style to suit internal updates, industry-specific briefings, or even entertainment recaps.\nHere’s an additional bullet point to include under **Customizing this workflow**:\n* Prefer chat over email? Replace the email node with a **Telegram bot** to receive your personalized tech newsletter directly in a Telegram chat.\n\n"
