LibraView

What it does

We present LibraView, a prototype AI news aggregator app that leverages the Gemini API. LibraView aggregates a global range of media sources from the Mediastack API, indexing them efficiently to produce more diverse perspectives than existing systems. Engineering such an app is challenging due to the scale and inherent bias in news articles. This submission provides a hands-on description of LibraView, the first functional prototype of its kind. Beyond scaling and bias issues, LibraView aims to become a practical large-scale system utilizing AI Overviews to offer diverse perspectives. It also addresses source management by seamlessly integrating sources with articles.
