I started to feel that a large portion of news outlets are just press releases republishing firms.

Which make me ask the following: why is there is no links aggregators that just give you a small summary and link to the original press release?

It’s the most common sense thing that should happen, yet I am not aware of a single one that does that.

Why is no one doing that?

    IMO, the aggregator seems like the wrong end to apply AI to. I would think the companies issuing press releases would use AI to write the releases and publish to all the platforms they want to reach.

    I would rather my aggregator simply deliver what is served, and for any summarizing to be conducted and vetted by the source.
