HiddenState – How I keep up with 500+ ML papers a day

Clustering by the specific technical constraint being attacked — not by topic — and scoring each signal on convergence, implementation evidence, engagement and significance is a neat, high-signal trick for surfacing research trends. It smartly dedupes org noise and ingests many sources, though using Claude as a clustering black box means the scoring pipeline could use clearer auditability or export hooks for skeptical researchers.
