1. Summarization - Though short, microblogs still have lots of non essential info (This paragraph could be a sentence). Summarization gets rid of this.
2. Semantic Similarity Grouping - So many headlines and microblogs are essentially saying the same thing. I only need to see it once.
Has potential. Get rid of the AI art, grab whatever the most popular image is, not everything needs and image. Better visibility for the category tags. Don't do a feed down the middle of an empty screen, make it a dashboard for people not using phones.
Maybe something like the old tweetdeck where you could chose different feeds, or maybe a way to browse original inputs (if it's something you really care about), most popular links and so on. I am just so over the scrolling timeline look of social media.
One thing I had thought of implementing (but never got around to) was a UI that would look at a social feed and instead of displaying a vertical list of posts, would use a 2d canvas and let you size posts by engagement/poster reach. So if lots of people were retweeting something, you wouldn't see 30 copies of the same post but one large version with a lot of nodes around it representing the people you follow and their 2-cents comments.
"or maybe a way to browse original inputs" - You can see a timeline of the sources if you tap/click on any of the items in the feed. Guess that isn't obvious enough.
"chose different feeds" - If you click the filter button you can choose multiple categories like tech, business, social media etc. This feature needs to be more obvious too. Or were you thinking of something different?
I like the idea of bigger cards when they have more sources. Don't think it would work well on mobile but certainly a tablet or larger.

Would love any feedback.
