    Make it more info dense like Techmeme https://share.gemini.google/DUSuli5XiIMJ

    Have a vertical scrollbar

    Add rss

    Masonry grid (or offer layout selector) https://share.gemini.google/gAvGtSnQ9i8b

    Auto-updates so people can just leave it open in a tab and check without refresh effort

    Provide bare-bones brutalist theme option, keeping only vital information

    Alternate name: l.A.t.I.v / LaTiV - Vital backwards

    Just my tips

      Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely review each one and think if/how can I implement them. There's definitely some tradeoffs on every decision but I'm on the phase where I'm iterating looking for the best UI/UX.

      the way you do information density btw is say "include all unique insights, facts, figures, data points, predictions, timelines, and otherwise important information with 100% fidelity"

        Yep, then from that I would have an options panel to toggle only the things you want to see.

        The other thing I would do on AIbriefs is have spacebar shift the card-list viewport right to the top and hide the top-most card.

        This way reading the site entails loading the page and hitting spacebar after each card is read. This can already be done with Hackerbrain user-script while reading top-comments for any HN item - spacebar or clicking an item's green badge.

    I love the idea for AI news aggregator website idea. As a data analyst working with AI, it's essential to know the most updated news. And this website helps me catch any AI related news.

      Thank you! Yes, I'm polling every few minutes and I tried to cover useful sources only. Please feel free to provide feedback or feature requests.

    Looks clean and wired up nicely. What model API are you using for the AI summary? Great job!

    • michelmi 12 hours ago ago

      Thanks! I'm using deepseek-flash and gemini-flash. I also tested other ones but these were the best tradeoff in terms of quality and price.

    This is like a better version of digg

    Great execution

    • michelmi 15 hours ago ago

      Thank you! I'm actively working on improving it. Any feedback or feature requests are welcome.

    The font, the colour, and the dot on the tags all scream Claude slop ui.

    • michelmi 12 hours ago ago

      I'm guilty! My background is backend engineer so I relied on claude design for UI decisions. I'll definitely do a review with this in mind.

      • gneuron 8 hours ago ago

        maybe just strip the UI down to basics (techmeme + hacker news are mostly all about the text content)
