[HN Gopher] Show HN: AI-Less Hacker News

Show HN: AI-Less Hacker News
Lately I've felt exhausted due to the deluge of AI/GPT posts on
hacker news, and have seen similar grumblings. I threw together
this frontend that filters out anything with the phrases AI, LLM,
GPT, or LLaMa for use until the hype dies down a bit. Before
anyone asks, yes I did try to use ChatGPT to help, and while the
code it provided was helpful, it needed some heavy bug-fixing.
Edit: One other note I forgot to mention. The favicon is generated
by Stable Diffusion, I asked it to generate an "Aritificial
Intelligence Favicon", and then I added the red circle with line
through it.

| Seems like it would be a great feature for too-long titles,
