Inspiration
News articles, or just articles in general, are often easier to process when you can see another person's perspective on it. Now, what if in order to see that perspective, we had a 'discussion board' feature on a website, while simultaneously filtering out hate speech within the comments and other unwanted things from user posts?
What it does
Provides multiple companies' news stories, with a discussion board for people to share their thoughts on it.
How we built it
This is mostly a proof of concept (whoops..), so it's an HTML file with the visible displays up.
Challenges we ran into
Originally, I wanted to integrate Google Gemini into determining whether the phrases users tried to post was hate speech or not. I ended up NOT being able to get that API key to work.. so I worked around it.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
This is my first hackathon where I'm submitting a solo project. wowza !
What we learned
I learned how to use HTML, as I've never really tried to use it before.
What's next for Out with the Old, In with the News
zoo-wee mama!
