In some ways I like the concept. Making interesting papers easier to find and easier to digest seems like a good thing.
But the popularity metrics and AI aspects seem like they will cause a bias towards certain types of papers, making potentially useful ones not get found.
Just what humanity needed: TikTok for scientific papers, with AI! I find myself looking up to the sky wishing for an asteroid to hit Earth on a daily basis, lately...
Is your negativity simply a reaction to TikTok and AI, or do you have a substantive criticism of this idea? There are so many papers being written these days that it is difficult to find all the ones that are relevant to your work and interests. Likewise, there's a discoverability problem for authors who are not already well-known. Andrej Karpathy's Arxiv Sanity used to be a decent interface for manually filtering for your interests, but it's been down for a while now.
FYI I'm getting "Too many signups right now. Please try again in a few minutes." when trying to sign up to the waiting list. (congrats haha, but good to fix)
I hope it’s not purely ai generated, but who knows, maybe it is and it’s still interesting and informative. It could still be with such huge volume and high signal basis. Wish I’d thought of this actually.

Already "too many signups" at 13 votes, ruh roh
This looks amazing. I hope Android will be an option.

I think it's a cool idea. It could be great for discovering new papers in a fun way.
This is a bit like discovering punk rock for the first time and rolling your eyes and saying "yeah, we really need more rock"
Show HN: Shit, but for dinner
Yeah, I have an allergic reaction to tiktok being mixed up in any serious intellectual pursuit. :-)
Too funny to be AI-generated. Well done.
Love this! Looking forward to trying it.

Idea Looks really attractive to me too.
I joined the waiting list.
