The real news here is that Digg is still up :O
- 1f60c 4mo agoIt came back, died, and now it's back as some kind of weird AI-focused news aggregator.
- binsquare 4mo agothis sentence hurts to read
- stefan_ 4mo agoBut they have such great AI generated insights on their AI stories: "Many users praise Zhipu for open-sourcing GLM-5.2 under MIT with a 1M context window as a major step for accessible AI, while others respond with insults and anti-Chinese hostility."
- LearnYouALisp 4mo agoI mean, it reads almost like an abstract of papers I've recently seen, with a similar info-cramming approach (somewhat like an editorial-SEO keyword bloat).
- joshuat 4mo agoThat's disappointing to hear, I remember the reboot news and thought they had a pretty solid team behind it. I guess gaining traction proved too difficult.
- TiredOfLife 4mo agoIt died and came back again last month
- SilverElfin 4mo agoI actually found some of it useful. I saw some page where it helpfully pulled tweets from well known people relating to some story. So it’s not just some slop, or that’s how it looked to me.
- unshavedyak 4mo agowhich is hilarious because i was excited when i heard Digg was coming back. Many platforms are having a difficult time with bots, mass thread manipulation, etc. I'd be interested in a platform which attempted to fix that problem. I thought that was "so obvious" that i figured it was going to exactly be Digg's play. .. nope, just another AI play, as if we are missing those these days. No idea if zero AI/bots is even possible, but at least an attempt would have me interested. A platform like Reddit/Digg of old, offering human connection, features aimed at less toxicity, etc. Instead they give us this AI crap :s
- giancarlostoro 4mo agoReminds me of the Perplexity news thing.
- skybrian 4mo agoIt seems to be basically a Twitter mirror with extra cruft?
- theturtletalks 4mo agoMore like a curator of all the AI news on Twitter. It’s also a great way to find trending AI projects on GitHub and elsewhere
- tamimio 4mo agoThat’s my thoughts exactly, had to click the home page to double check!
- mannycalavera42 4mo agodigg goes along with slashdot and freshmeat memories. good 'ol mems
- jaggederest 4mo ago... for nostalgia's sake ... It is official; Netcraft now confirms: BSD is dying
- xtracto 4mo agoIn Soviet America, AI programs YOU.
- r0fl 4mo agoThis version is peak ai slop garbage trying to game the Google algorithm
- jurgenaut23 4mo agoAhah, it used to be as much a time sink as HN
