It may be too late but it would be nice to replace the URL with the https://spidr.today/ variant.
Been wishing for something like this for a long time
One day we’ll hopefully have the AI synthesize a précis that takes all its sources into account.
However I can't help but notice how much this shows just how meaningless and toxic news have become (or always have been).
About every single tile seems to be either
* boxed emotions, mostly in form of a dramatic two digit body count without even hinting at the underlying causes or why this should interest me other than because "oh my good poor people".
* statements of opinion by people who are highly paid to write such pieces, which may have some value as a Litmus test for the general-general relationship of entities X and Y, again while completely failing to convey relevance or context.
What do I gain from this, besides a faux warm feeling in the chest that I'm now an "informed voter" or something?
