Just another recommendation system. What I'd like is a bot that crawls the web for all articles ( or even discussions ) of a single story, strips out all the narrative, opinion and fluff and just gives me an aggregated bullet point list.

Good luck. I think there's a good market for such an offering.

To be perfectly honest, there really isn't much there to comment on currently.

Chaotic. Can't tell where one story begins or ends.

would pictures prior to each of the three numbers here and a divider of sorts between the last sentence and the bullets here alleviate that feeling of chaos?

Looking to make something meaningful and worth reading for the AI community.

Yeah I think so

Particularly on mobile, your sidebar, the story summary, and the ad for artifact all kinda blur together it was jarring.

I'm a fan of card interfaces, it tells me what text and titles go with what links and summaries.

Good. The format is perfect. All that needs work is the visual design of the site, and automating this to work on a large scale ( I don't know how much of that is automated ).

It's fine. I think the main issue is I'm on mobile right now. Desktop website is better.

It's not really the colours. It's the layout. Feels dated and blog spammy. There's some fundamental rules of modern responsive website design it breaks such as not putting borders on the side. Especially thick ones.

I don't think it's something you'll be able to fix in a second. Take some time with it.

I don't think this is possible. There is some amount of inherent bias in all media including news articles. What information is deemed relevant enough to report on in the first place, what details are included in a story, the wording and grammar used to describe the events, etc these are all influenced by normative factors.

Our conception of the "objective facts" will always necessarily be subjective.
