Show HN: Latent Signal - Curated feed for AI news

[humships]

I kept losing track of what was happening in AI. It's scattered across Reddit, Discord, Twitter, arXiv, GitHub, Hugging Face. Things slip through constantly. So I built Latent Signal to consolidate it for myself.

It's a curated feed for AI news. Right now it's just me, but the goal is for the community to help surface what matters. Covers LLMs, image gen, video, audio, 3D, world models, tooling, and more. The design is entirely inspired by Hacker News.

Currently pulling from these sources: - Reddit - arXiv - Hugging Face - GitHub - Hacker News - Lobste.rs

You can browse immediately without signing up. Accounts are only needed if you want to vote or submit.

This is the first time I'm sharing it publicly. Would appreciate feedback on what's missing, what's broken, or if something like this already exists and I missed it.

I only see a few articles listed compared to the amount of new AI and ML articles that come out every day. Are most of them being filtered out of your feed and what are the criteria for them being excluded?

[humships]

Good question. There's filtering built in to keep noise down: reddit and hacker news posts need 50+ upvotes/points to make it through, and HN also has to match AI keywords. github only pulls the top 10 trending repos per language. arxiv and huggingface papers come through with less filtering since they're already curated by those communities.

there's also deduplication so the same link from multiple sources only shows once. the tradeoff is fewer posts but (hopefully) higher signal. I'm still working through happy to tune the thresholds if it feels too aggressive. The tradeoff is fewer posts but (hopefully) higher signal. User submissions bypass all that though, if you submit something it goes straight to the feed. So, I'm hoping folks find it useful enough to start sharing links they come across.

I'm still tweaking the approach for this, and the thresholds I picked are absolutely arbitrary, so I'm open to any feedback that can improve it!

This looks great, but honestly without an RSS/Atom feed, I wouldn't use it.

Also, please add a light mode. Some of us have visual disabilities that make such a high-contrast dark mode unreadable.

A quick update: I've added a light mode and an RSS/Atom feed! Thank you for the feedback :)

rss/atom feed is a great idea. I hadn't thought of it, but it makes a lot of sense. I'll look into adding that.

And yeah, light mode is coming. I should have it in the next couple days. I appreciate the feedback.
