This doesn’t replace journalists, it’s just an AI driven link aggregator.
That said as others have mentioned, LLVM’s are inherently biased through their training and this site only picks from moderate and left wing sites, bringing into question whether it could ever be unbiased.
- Kye 4y agoJust trying to settle on a definition on left, moderate, etc would grind this thing to a halt. Most of what people call left is center by any view I would consider well-founded. Then there are places where what passes for center in the US would be far right. Not trying to classify would make choosing sources that are actually representative impossible unless the creator were operating under the illusion that unbiased sources are a thing.
- guywithahat 4y agoHonestly I agree, it's a matter of perspective and even most self described left or right-wing outlets will have journalists who occasionally write articles that swing the other way. That said you can find the publishers they use in this list https://github.com/joshwallerr/newsnotfound/blob/main/scrape.py https://github.com/joshwallerr/newsnotfound/blob/main/scrape... if you want to make your own decision. Further I want to add I don't think this is a bad idea, I just think the idea of collecting "unbiased news", although desirable, is unfortunately impossible. The idea and model they've developed however may be very good.
- shortformblog 4y agoIts positioning is designed to question the legitimacy and objectivity of traditional journalism while positioning itself as an alternative. That deserves more pushback than the average aggregator does.
