I previously worked on this, but made substanital improvements to the underlying implementation, and now the filters work much better.

This is also a general purpose tool that you can modify/customize

It's slow

This makes Hacker News usable again. Thank you.

Does this use AI to determine whether content is about AI?
MrLeap•56m ago
you could look for the substring "AI" in the title and get 95% of the way there.
busymom0•52m ago
That would miss a lot of posts.

Here's how mine looks using my method:

https://imgur.com/a/P1qMIok

9 out of 30 posts have been removed.

Steps:

Install uBlock Origin Lite. Then create a custom filter:

    news.ycombinator.com##tr.athing:has(a:has-text(/\b(?:A\.?I\.?|A\.?G\.?I\.?|LLMs?|GPTs?|TPU|NPU|RAG|MoE|RLHF|xAI)\b|Anthropic|agent|super-?intelligence|Blackwell|Cerebras|ChatGPT|Claude|Cohere|Command\s*R|Context\s*window|Copilot|Cursor|DALL-E|deep\s*learning|DeepSeek|ElevenLabs|Fine-tun(?:e|ing)|Flux|Gemini|GenAI|Generative|Gemma|Grok|Groq|H100|Hallucination|harness(?:es)?|Hugging\s*Face|LangChain|Llama|LlamaIndex|Midjourney|Mistral|Ollama|OpenAI|OpenRouter|Perplexity|prompt|Qwen|Runway\s*(?:AI|ML)|Gen-[1-4](?:\.5)?|Sora|Synthetic\s*data|token|vibecod|vLLM|Whisper/i)):xpath(. | following-sibling::tr[1])
Any improvements to above filter are welcome.

"Cursor" and "Copilot" are generic words sadly that you may find in other unrelated contexts, I'd take these out, and "prompt" is regularly used in headlines regarding political news.
sammy0910•40m ago
yes.

If you prefer something closer to the original layout: https://www.unslop.news/

how does it filter posts?

There's scope for an incredibly cheeky joke about AI here... but I'll hold myself back :)

Somewhat absurd imo seeing two of these types of sites being the top posts. But as they say the market speaks. What would be more fascinating imo is to track the average article shift from removal over time.

Slow but necessary

My interest in HN has decreased since it feels every other news is about AI

However I'll use the other links provided here, as it takes 10s to display

NeedNewForums•53m ago
I like AI and AI news, but can't stand the endless Anslopic Claude ads.

All this site ever talks about is Claude. It's so annoying. We'd use it if it was good (it's not).

sammy0910•34m ago
something that makes this website different from the others, is it lets you filter by _any_ combination of topics, and allows you to edit them live and in real time.

see (view on desktop)

for a more detailed example

NeedNewForums•54m ago
When people ask for alternatives, I think they mean a different admin/investor behind the scenes too.

Reddit and HN share the same investors.

Unslop.news is still HN content and users.

Lobsters is like invite-only HN - maybe even more insufferable than this place in that regard.

People want something new, not the same corrupt people like Garry Tan and PG all the time.

I'm sick of YC and HN - they are barely technical and invest only in rich kids from other countries.

I personally want something entirely new - new admins.

otherayden•50m ago
Hard disagree with lobste.rs being worse than HN
ClaudesGayBro•39m ago
Top post there right now is by user maurycy (https://lobste.rs/~maurycy)

Also a HN user (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=maurycy)

Same shit

ilaksh•45m ago
Maybe check out Mastodon, Matrix, (new) Freenet, etc.
mschuster91•12m ago
Mastodon is just as bad, it suffers from the same problem as most of the Fediverse it inspired, admins of large instances bitchfighting with one another and holding their users hostage...
ramon156•54m ago
does it filter on every load?
sammy0910•31m ago
yes. it is a live updated feed.
hk__2•54m ago
I initially read that as "Hacker News will reduce priority for AI driven content" and was wondering why it was announced on a random website instead of this one.
ChrisArchitect•48m ago

Ask HN: Can we please limit the AI news flood?

stopanslopic•44m ago
Can you just do reduced priority for Anthropic?

When people complain about the incessant Claude glazing in posts and comments totally dominating the content of the site - it always gets twisted into “people don’t like AI”

But really we are just sick of the fucking Claude ads. It’s non-stop. Should be illegal how much those fuckers advertise.

sammy0910•32m ago
yes.

here is a more detailed demo link (best viewed on desktop).

Just pretending that AI doesn't exist or doesn't matter is one way to go.

I think we might be getting close to an era where some people section off areas of land or the internet and ban AI and humanoid robots in that area. I know there are a lot of people who want that.

The problem is that AI is getting better and better at impersonating humans.

Eventually you may see a convergence, where the New Luddite Zoos are just more constrained variations of the normal Human Zoos. Enforced by superhuman AI.

> I think we might be getting close to an era where some people section off areas of land or the internet and ban AI and humanoid robots in that area

So basically we'll end up with a version of the amish that are stuck in the early 2000s instead of the 1800s.

> Just pretending that AI doesn't exist or doesn't matter is one way to go.

I don't think thats a common position on this site. It'd be more accurate to say that people want balanced content.

I use AI quite a lot in my work, but a ton of AI content is just thinly-veiled marketing and not particularly interesting, IMO.

Being aware about something is not the same as actively participating in that for work and is also different from doing it for education or entertainment.

Didn't you post this one enough times already? Kinda spammy

Mastodon's UI is horrible. At least for people who never used Xitter. Why did a new company (at a moment of Mastodon initial release) copied already ancient and by then pointless limitations? Character limit, linear feed, tags in text, no advanced formatting etc. And then there are registration problem (where to register), the retention/safety problem (what if a benevolent admin of your instance nuked your account, now what?), the discovery problem etc. I'm permanently baffled at the decision process of Mastodon developers.
