- This is one Chrome Extension I can't live without.
I've been using this ever since Manifest v3 killed Hacker News Extension Suite (HNES). HN comment threads are getting longer over time. Top links often have 1k+ comments now. The AI summary saves me a ton of time. I also use the extension with the new sorting function, sorting frontpage links by points, so I can focus on what's important.

- The only thing that's rolling in my head right now is: WHY
Why would anyone want an AI-generated summary of an online discussion??
- Another interesting link relevant to AI summaries for HN discussion is the utility created by simonw [0]. Our tool is quite similar to what simonw did, except that we make the back-links more seamless. If you’re interested in a standalone tool similar to what simonw developed, you can find our script here [1]. If there’s community interest, we can improve the user experience of this tool.

- Another interesting feature for HN users in the companion Bluesky bot we created [0]. It analyzes top stories from HN [1] and generates a new Bluesky thread every hour using the same cached summary. This bot is operational for the last 8 months.
