This is a great initiative, but when it's such a simple functionality I wish it was shared as a TamperMonkey script instead of a browser extension.

It is much safer for the consumer as the browser extension will automatically update without ever notifying you, and can access everything on every page of every website. It just makes me uncomfortable.

I will port the code out tonight, but thanks very much for sharing!

EDIT: Here is the TamperMonkey script: https://pastebin.com/D555pGkj (sorry it's not installable in one click, I didn't want to share my GitHub account)

I read Hacker News through hckrnews.com and accomplish the same thing with a single line in my ad blocker browser extension (uBlock) filter list.

Here's an example of the filter:

hckrnews.com##.entry:has-text(/(orange|pineapple|kiwi)/i)

Or it could be written as multiple lines if that looks cleaner:

hckrnews.com##.entry:has-text(/orange/i)

hckrnews.com##.entry:has-text(/pineapple/i)

hckrnews.com##.entry:has-text(/kiwi/i)

I'd like to filter for just AI related news on HN Is that an option?

Do you mean just AI, not GPT? If so, I'll add an option in the some time. You can also clone the extension and remove GPT from the regex :)

I'd like AI AND GPT, in fact if there was a hackernews for just that, it would probably one of the sites I read daily.

AI is the new bitcoin! I remember some people complaining about bitcoin in a similar fashion some time back while other people bought it.

So you mean a new hot [mostly misunderstood but accessible] technology is the new hot [but mostly misunderstood but accessible] technology.

People would speak of "the net" c. 1999 similarly, like it was this nebulous creature rising up off its operating table! I guess we say "cloud" now so maybe nothing's changed.

Somewhat related: I’ve started a weekly newsletter for the most trending AI-related stories on HN. It also includes a short summary and sentiment analysis with an emoji. You can read the latest digest here https://hn-ai-newsletter.beehiiv.com/p/last-weeks-ai-highlig...

Not sure why anyone would hide those entries. This kind of thing is basically going to fuel our industry for the next 10 to 15 years.

I sure hope the entire industry isn't going to rely on the services of a single corporation.
