I don't normally read the front page, more /newest
Any chance of implementing that?
Your site works with my Firefox auto-pager, which is really nice for archiving posts for later search.

  Hmm, right now I only process a subset of all submissions to keep things lean, so this is the closest that the site can do to /newest right now: https://hcker.news/?filter=top200&ai=exclude
  Feel free to email me.

I also built a browser extension to do this client-side. It just auto-clicks the Hide links for any story with an AI-related term. Source & Firefox add-on link here: https://github.com/ColdPie1/enough-ai-on-hn

  There are a lot of ways of tackling this, but the only way to truly filter everything out is to update the list constantly.
  My filter currently has 146 keyword filters and 101 domain filters. Even with those, I've had to filter almost 400 exact urls on top of that in the past two weeks!

    Definitely a lot of approaches. I like that mine is dead simple & runs in the browser; but an advantage to a deeper inspection like yours is it will catch those endless AI thinkpieces that don't obviously stick an AI term in the title. Pros & cons!
