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

  • 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.

  • Agreed. Otherwise I like the idea. I’m not an engineer I’m on the sales side of things where I am at, so I am curious and this may be a stupid question but how do you fact check?

  • I like it.

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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"

  • 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.
