Uxpa.org is the website for the User eXperience Professionals' Association. UXPA was established in 1991 as the UPA (Usability Professionals' Association) when Usability was considered to be an umbrella term for practitioners operating in this area, and it was changed in 2012 to reflect the changes in the industry. If you want to know what's happening in the professional world of UX design, then keep an eye on this website.

Smashingmagazine.com contains up-to-date articles that are particularly of interest to professionals, for example A Pragmatist’s Guide to Lean User Research, and podcasts such as What is CX design?

uxplanet.org and uxmag.com both contain other useful articles and are worth browsing, e.g. Ultimate ChatGPT cheatsheet for UX/UI Designers and AI needs UX.
