New AI News App Bulletin to Combat Clickbait Headlines
The closure of Artifact, the popular AI news app from Instagram’s founders, has led to the development of a new app called Bulletin. This new AI-powered app also focuses on removing clickbait from news sources. Unlike Artifact, Bulletin allows users to customize the news sources they want to see, just like any other RSS reader.
Key Features of Bulletin:
- Accessible on Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple Vision Pro
- Option to customize news sources or stick to default news feeds for various categories
- Ability to improve news post titles using AI to eliminate clickbait headlines
- Smart Summary feature for quick understanding of article’s main points
- AI language translation and option for alternative summary styles
- Unlock unlimited AI summaries with paid plans, starting at $3.99 per month
Customizable News Experience
Bulletin offers a default set of feeds for different news categories, such as World News, Technology, Entertainment, Business, Sports, and Fashion. Users can also add or remove feeds based on their preferences. This customization allows you to personalize your news-reading experience.
Removing Clickbait Headlines
Bulletin’s “Improve Title” feature helps eliminate clickbait headlines from news posts. As a result, users can enjoy a more accurate and complete picture of current events and stories.
AI-Powered Smart Summary
By tapping the AI button at the top right of the screen, users can quickly access a bulleted list of the top news for each section. This feature provides a quick overview of the day’s news.
Customizing the News
One of the app’s key strengths is the ability to add any website with an RSS feed to the app. Users also have the option to adjust their “For You” feed by toggling off unwanted news categories or individual news sources.
Plan Options
While Bulletin is free to use, the anti-clickbait option and unlimited AI summaries are only available with paid plans. Paid plans start at $3.99 per month, with options for a yearly or lifetime subscription.
t/f Summary: The Road Ahead
In the future, the app plans to add support for following social network updates, similar to Tapestry, a new app in development. This update would provide a one-stop interface for RSS feeds, news alerts, and social networks.
Bulletin offers a user-friendly, accessible news-reading experience with the help of AI technology. The app is equipped to allow users to avoid clickbait headlines and access quick summaries of current events.
