Does this use AI to determine whether content is about AI?

  you could look for the substring "AI" in the title and get 95% of the way there.

    That would miss a lot of posts. Here's how mine looks using my method: https://imgur.com/a/P1qMIok https://imgur.com/a/P1qMIok 9 out of 30 posts have been removed. Steps: Install uBlock Origin Lite. Then create a custom filter: news.ycombinator.com##tr.athing:has(a:has-text(/\b(?:A\.?I\.?|A\.?G\.?I\.?|LLMs?|GPTs?|TPU|NPU|RAG|MoE|RLHF|xAI)\b|Anthropic|agent|super-?intelligence|Blackwell|Cerebras|ChatGPT|Claude|Cohere|Command\s*R|Context\s*window|Copilot|Cursor|DALL-E|deep\s*learning|DeepSeek|ElevenLabs|Fine-tun(?:e|ing)|Flux|Gemini|GenAI|Generative|Gemma|Grok|Groq|H100|Hallucination|harness(?:es)?|Hugging\s*Face|LangChain|Llama|LlamaIndex|Midjourney|Mistral|Ollama|OpenAI|OpenRouter|Perplexity|prompt|Qwen|Runway\s*(?:AI|ML)|Gen-[1-4](?:\.5)?|Sora|Synthetic\s*data|token|vibecod|vLLM|Whisper/i)):xpath(. | following-sibling::tr[1]) Any improvements to above filter are welcome.

        >and "prompt" is regularly used in headlines regarding political news. Oh no! Anyway...

        I agree about the risks but when I search for those words in posts, I don't seem to find much. For example, here's stories with "prompt" (only look at post titles, not the story text): https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=Prompt&sort=byDate&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...
