24 alternatives to Understand politics by visualising manifesto embeddings

Based on embeddings of the political parties manisfestos (gathered from ChatGPT) on different matters, we visualise how different they truly are on a PCA projection I want to extend this to US parties/candidates and make it more general

Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Understand politics by visualising manifesto embeddings launched in 2024; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

    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

    I wanted a way for people to support companies and people that align with their political beliefs. Additionally, I think it can serve as a valuable, source-linked public ledger of who said and did what over time, especially as incentives change and people try to rewrite their positions. This is fully AI-coded, researched, and sourced. Additionally, AI helped develop the scoring system. The evidence gathering is done by a number of different agents through OpenRouter that gather and classify source-backed claims. The point of that is not to pretend bias disappears, but to avoid me manually…

    Votizen is working to remove the influence of money in politics by making political decision-making more peer-to-peer. We're using Twitter and our API to pull tweets from only registered voters, and showing how the discussion breaks down among the parties. This has never been done before as far as I know, not even by the major media outlets. Please check it out and let me know what you think. If people are interested, we'll work to improve it for the further debates and campaigns.

    Hey HN — I've been working on creating small games with LLMs for the past year or two and found that one thing they have been bad at generally is creating story worlds — they tend to generate clusters of similar characters that aren't intrinsically linked to each other. I was thinking about this and remembered the semi-famous alien invasion political compass meme: https://www.reddit.com/r/PoliticalCompassMemes/comments/ktyq... I really liked how that format enforces the need to fill out all parts of the alignment chart, giving you a rich diversity of characters.…

    Over the weekend we built Parliament Wow. It's hacky, buggy and slightly broken but it does the job :) Parliament Wow makes it easy to find out what is going on in parliament and what it actually means for you and me. We know that nobody has the time to watch hours of debates, drown in legal paperwork or keep up with the implications of every vote. Not me or you and least of all your MPs. There is just too much data. So we made a solution. We paired some semantic search with every publicly accessible document, audio recording or transcript we could get our hands on + some generative models…

    Just a fun toy I wanted to make. I've been studying and playing around with language models lately and have always been intrigued by how words are processed by these models. Since the vectors generated by embedding models is in very high dimensional space, I thought it would be cool to reduce them to 3D vectors and visualise them myself. This is what I have so far!

    Hey HN! I've been wondering for a while how we might be able to make the process of evaluating the politicians we vote for more transparent. In the most recent SF election- for example- I only really had a few promotional websites and some loose policy statements to go off of. This seems quite inefficient, especially considering how much signal- social media posts, policy decisions, interviews- exists on the internet for each politician. So, I put together Candidly (https://votecandidly.com/) as an experiment (for now, it only has information on the candidates for SF's…

    I got sick of the constant bombardment of US Political discourse, especially as I am not American, so I built an extension that blocks the top 200 words associated. You can add you own words to the mini DB, and toggle on and off etc.

    Hi HN, we're Jack and Daniel from Zep. We've built a visual exploration tool and AI assistant for analyzing Russian election interference in the run-up to next week's US elections. The Explorer uses Graphiti, Zep's open-source temporal Knowledge Graph library. Graphiti autonomously creates dynamic, temporally-aware knowledge graphs representing complex, evolving relationships between entities. To offer users a detailed view of Russian state operations and related topics, we populated the graph with over 50+ sources. These include US DOJ indictments, research by US and foreign governments,…
