I didn't expect to actually like it, well done for making me change my mind :-) Slight feedback: - Many "comments" summary start with boilerplate such as "This content discusses" which a bit annoying. - It would be good to have a sense of "controversy" in the comments summary. Like some kind of general "mood".

Awesome! Thank you for trying it out. Will work on improving the conciseness of the summary and also surface the mood of the discussion.

Congrats on a great idea well executed!

In my mind, the gold standard for engaging summaries is Seeking Alpha. As a random example, see https://seekingalpha.com/article/4633758-sell-amazon-before-...

If you could train the model to come up with well structured bullet points, the summaries would be amenable to scanning before committing to fully engage. This is just an idea, I am not sure what fraction of your readers would prefer bullet points.

This is the AI summary of HN I've been using for the last couple of months: https://hackernews.betacat.io/ It has totally revolutionized my use of HN. It saves me a lot of time each day being able to scan the summaries to decide what to read. It has better design than the OP's site, but don't know if the summaries are better or not yet.

One thing i liked from the OPs page is the "dehyped" title. Current article titles are pretty bad at explaining what an article is about. This in the web in general. For example "my nodejs is as bit rusty " may be a good pun, but doesn't tell me anything.

I need to build another AI summary bot to summarize the output of all the others.

Do you have rss export? Because that would be … delightful

Shameless plug: I created a similar service, but where you can summarize any RSS feed. Here is the HN Top, for example: https://notifier.in/rss/best_hackernews_summarized.xml
