Ask HN: Make AI Filter for Hacker News

2 points by gethly 43 days ago | 8 comments

Can somebody, please, make a browser extension that filters out every post on hacker news that is about AI?

I've built an extension for TamperMonkey for this exact purpose: https://gist.github.com/torunar/efdadd8ae50e9e40237f7aa555bf...

You can always modify the lists on lines 16-17 to add/remove topics.

Thanks. It looks to be working alright.

In uBlock Origin -> My Filters:

    # Filter some topics
    # top (title / url)
    news.ycombinator.com##tr.athing span.titleline > a:has-text(/(laude|lockchain|coin|202[3-9]$)/):upward(tr)
    # bottom (stats / comments)
    news.ycombinator.com##tr.athing span.titleline > a:has-text(/(laude|lockchain|coin|202[3-9]$)/):upward(tr) + *
    #

Customize as desired.

I would be interested in something like this as well. I feel inundated in AI-related projects and news, and I'm only tangentially interested in that.

Thanks for that.

I think if you can build an AI to identify AI-generated text, you could actually create a billion-dollar business.

it's not about the content, but topic. i am tired of reading about AI stuff. i am not interested in it whatsoever and it has been polluting HN for a long time time.
