Hi HN, Wanted to share a project I made over the weekend - a real-time fascism tracker. The site fetches recent news from trusted sources, filters it for keywords related to fascism and the current US administration, and then sends it to GPT-4o for classification according to the 14 characteristics of fascism described by Dr. Lawrence Britt. With the rapid pace of news in the US, especially post-election, it’s hard to keep up. I built this site so you can quickly see important topics and draw parallels with similar historical events. Would love to hear your thoughts. - Ryan

Anthropic and OpenAI's publicly available models are explicitly guard-railed so that they refuse offensive tasks. And their cyber-focussed models are gated for enterprises. This leaves SMEs and mid market open to major vulnerabilities. AI can be used as both an adversarial and defensive tool in the world of cyber. A worst case outcome is if only the adversaries have access. Meanwhile, most existing AI cyber tools are just wrappers. The problem is that they still have all the guardrails on from the foundation model where they will inherit its refusals. For this project we've post-trained a…

I'm sure you all saw the debate a few days ago, alongside all the tech influencoors giving their mid-takes about politics. Doesn't it get tiring? That's why I built mindfirewall a chrome extension that uses AI to filter out tweets. You'll never have to see politics, war, or negativity on your timeline again. In the future you'll be shocked you even allowed this stuff into your brain in the first place. Let me know what you think below, does it feel too much like censorship? would you use this?

Hey folks! This is a project that I've been working in my free time for the past few months. It's a news aggregator that uses AI to select relevant articles and summarize them. The default sources are frameworks and libraries' updates, popular HN topics, and languages' subreddits threads that make past a certain threshold. You can run a local instance (needs an OpenAI key) and customize it with your own sources, and adjust the prompt as well. The resulting website can be browsed at https://dev-radar.com/ My next experiment will be with local news. I'm building some feeds with…

I decided to build my own AI feeds reader since I wanted features I couldn't find, or at least not in the way I wanted to, for instance: - Filter news by interest/category - Cluster same story from different sources into one - Show short summary of each new so you can skip if it's not really that interesting to you - Track relevant AI figures, but not only their tweets and posts but also their appearences in articles and interviews I'm still tuning it and improving it everyday.

Throwaway here from a long time lurker. I've been frustrated by the media coverage of the protests since February - first the lack of it, then the overemphasis on inevitable flashpoints. It all misses the point that it's a broad, organic, mostly peaceful, and increasingly growing movement. Recently I ran across a great data source from an individual backed by a hard working team of 20 volunteers, We (the People) Dissent. They've been building a Google Sheet, tracking event locations from multiple sources with source links. Which inspired this interactive map - it attempts to illustrate where…

StayUpAI▲11Hi HN! I just launched StayUpAI, an all-in-one platform to stay ahead in the AI world. It aggregates AI news from multiple sources (articles, research papers, YouTube), then uses AI to summarize all news daily or weekly. Core features: - Unified AI news feed (with source/language/theme filters) - Daily & weekly AI summary emails - Summaries for each news item (papers, YouTube, articles) - Multilingual news (with translation) - Free to start, no personal info needed for a quick test I built this because tracking AI news is overwhelming, and I wanted a tool that does the curation…

Former investigative reporter turned developer. I built a simple breaking-news monitor because tracking events across platforms is a mess now that Twitter’s unreliable. Bluesky is the backbone (a fraction of twitter, but still lots of journalists and OSINT folks), plus RSS, Telegram, Reddit, YouTube and Mastodon. Everything is one chronological feed with no algorithm, clear source labels, and lightweight activity detection when a region spikes above baseline (frequency math, not LLMs). But we do have a (hopefully non-obtrusive) AI-generated recent/post summary. Been building for a…

I built a tracker that automatically scrapes the White House website for new executive orders and uses GPT-4 to generate plain-English summaries. The system runs daily, finds new orders, feeds the full legal text to ChatGPT for summarization and auto-categorization, then generates individual pages and updates the main index. It even creates custom Open Graph images for social sharing. Currently tracking 158+ orders with automatic updates as new ones are signed. Features: - AI summaries of all executive orders in plain English - Auto-categorization by policy area (immigration, trade, AI,…

Hi HN, Most of us have been there: It’s 3 AM, there’s an outage, and the #incident channel is exploding with 200+ messages. Once the fix is deployed, the real pain begins—spending 4 hours reconstructing the timeline for the post-mortem. I built ProdRescue AI to automate this. It’s an incident intelligence engine that correlates technical logs with human context from Slack. How it works: Native Slack Integration: Connect via OAuth 2.0. We only access channels you explicitly invite the bot to. Contextual Correlation: It maps Slack timestamps to log events, identifying not just what failed, but…

The Problem: Social media platforms such as X, Facebook, and Reddit have become the primary news sources for most individuals. These platforms are designed to maximize engagement and provide information that reinforces existing biases. The mass adoption of these platforms has contributed to highly polarized societies and widespread misinformation and hate. Drooid’s Approach: Drooid tackles misinformation and bias by providing all sides of news stories. It gathers articles from various journalistic sources, processes them, and then generates short news summaries, around 60 words, which cover…
