Show HN: Hacker News with AI stories filtered out

Hi folks,

I've noticed that a lot of people here seem exhausted by the amount of AI news on the front page. I shared hcker.news here a year ago and it has since gained a ton of filtering features, including a dedicated AI filter, so I figured I should tell more people about it.

The filter works in three passes:

1. Known AI-related keywords and domains are filtered automatically.

2. An agent reviews the remaining articles and removes those it identifies as AI-related.

3. I make the call on uncertain cases.

You can also exclude GitHub repos posted to HN that show signs of AI authorship. The filter checks:

- Commit messages for agent attribution

- Contributors for known coding agents

- Repository files for agent instructions and configs

People here have been asking for some version of this for a while:

- Ask HN: Has anyone built "HN front page, with all AI stories filtrered out"? - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48940479

- We need tech news sources which exclude AI - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48713041

- Ask HN: Another "Hacker News" with less AI and more human-focused hacking news? - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48834961

- And many more: 47672065, 48039702, 48202486, 48935613, 49037377, 48417916, 47522856, 47857461

No filter will be perfect, but this is as good as it gets. lmk what you think. Cheers.
