The problem with vibecoded sites like this is nobody will take you or your idea seriously. It’s like a big rubber stamp that says “this is slop”. Hire an actual designer and make an actual website, you could still do this with AI to build it, but it will look 1000x more credible.

i mean, I really want to give parity credit to AI when it's due. We have lots of designers, and honestly, the work is not at parity at what we're seeing internally. People can disagree but that is just my personal experience. Thanks for the feedback though, I do appreciate it. If we have to make it more credible with different colors or fonts I don't really see that as an issue but we'll take a look.

If you buy a new car from the dealer presumably somewhere in the fine print it gives them permission to do this. But if you buy the same car used from an individual, how does the car company still retain the right to spy? It seems like this must be breaking some sort of privacy laws.

This feels like a marketing post. There’s no substance to it and no details, at least for me on mobile. I really don’t understand who or what this is supposed to be for… if Auravision is a product I can’t tell what it is or why it matters.

it's just a HN for this particular vertical of AI privacy and security...thanks for the patience, it's our first run at this. no marketing is intended, it's just a (hopefully useful) website to try out some techniques.

This is a vibe coded advertisement.

Is it really brand-based?

I was looking into a new Honda and discovered the data sharing varied most between models rather than between brands. Some honda's reported much more than others. This seemed to turn on which infotainment system they were using and if the car came with non-optional remote start (cell).

yeah apologies, it's not meant to be repackaging but a 24/7 news analysis to compact relatively recent cyber related incidents to an HN style update, automate by our AI. This is the first run on this, so I appreciate the patience.

i get the vibe coding angst but I do think this is different, I mean there are 14 agents scouring real time sources 24/7 to put together condensed, readable content for the average user to make them more alarmed (as they should be) about AI privacy. That's the only goal, just education, if it works. If not, we'll shut it down.

I think you'll find most people on hacker news don't want to read re-packaged content, they want to read primary sources or original reporting.

I HATE, loath and despise, my 'smart' car. Every time I aproach the cursed thing I ritualy anounce 'i hate my car', as it helps get that up front and reduces my surprise when it displays some further subtle and horrible behavior or characteristic. So far I can not find any recomendation for a new car that has no screen or capacitive controlls or the least of my concerns, connectivity. And it's far far from just the technology,the whole thing is a norman door on wheels, but it looks like I willhave the financial wearwithal and time to dispose of it and aquire something unfortunately older, but presumably all thought out as one cohearant thing.
