Half kidding feature request for HN: Mark all AI related posts so I can filter them out, when I need a pause.

Here you go https://tools.simonwillison.net/hacker-news-filtered

  • This post is at the top when filtered against AI :) Maybe it should use llm based filters to understand if the post is about AI and filter it out?

    • Us the AI to build the bubble against the AI, because everyone knows AI is the AI of the AI.

  • I'll see your simonw tool and raise you one that actually works: https://hcker.news/?view=frontpage&ai=exclude

    I's not just matching against titles. Ironically, I have an agent running daily scans, reading the contents of the top 200 stories of the day. It auto screens high-confidence ones and I make judgement calls on like 10-20 of them per day.

    • Right now, that site doesn't show this post, regardless of whether the filter is active or not ...

      So, it's impossible to know whether your filter is working on this story yet, either.

  • Lol, this post is number one on the leaderboard on the “filtered” list list. Trusting ai slop to filter out ai is as ironic as it gets.

definitely take the breaks when you need them. I've already had a few friends just get lost in the AI train of stuff and suffer mentally a bit.

I see a future HN post about how someone vibe coded HN to filter the AI stories. HNAI (Heck No AI)
