I'm subscribed to Huggingface's Daily Papers newsletter but going through each paper individually was a chore.

So I created a GH workflow to pull the papers, use an LLM and TTS to generate the podcast daily.

Hope you like it!



Thank you so much! :)

I’ll definitely try to add audio. Local TTS models are getting better and I guess I can feed the headline to create a podcast-like feed


Local TTS has become incredibly good lately. Check out some content on locallama if you haven't. I tried a couple and was blown away by how good some of them were!

Best of luck, world needs more content like yours!


That’s a great point! I could add some “roles” that people can choose for the kind of papers they’d like to see.


That was exactly my reaction after reading the first few paragraphs. “How did Eve circumvent the email verification step?”

Netflix should totally fix this, even my local public library asks for email verification after signing up.


I share your concerns about losing Facebook data of the past, but frankly you didn't address any of the concerns that were listed in the article.

The issue is what they do with our data and whether you'd be comfortable letting them use your data this way. It's also due to their shady practices like not disclosing changes to privacy policy. This is especially worse with non-technical people like my mom using their platform. Who knows what kind of bs they're peddling onto her wall.

I think it's awesome that people are finding ways to get off Facebook. It's like getting out of a heroine addiction or something:)

I believe that I have addressed these issues by still utilizing the service.

They're well known to the HN community. They're not new. They just don't matter to me. Nor to most of the rest of the market, because billions still use it.


That's totally fine, as long as you are aware of the problem and decide that it doesn't matter to you. But they have the moral(legal?) obligation to let us know how they're using our data.

* One Tab - Push all current tabs into one tab. I use this with Tab Snooze, mostly. All tabs related to a project are snoozed till I get to work on them again.

* Papier/Workflowy New Tab - Have a text document in the new tab page. I usually have to-dos or jot down some quick notes here.

If you have a workflowy account, this syncs well and is similar to Papier.
