Hello, PH community! Are you ready to change the way you consume news? From fake news cycles, doomscrolling, echo chambers, and now generative AI news sites creating the spread of misinformation, the way we consume news is broken. That is why Rio is here to change that. Launching today, our groundbreaking AI-powered news app, Rio, helps you navigate the vast world of news. By using a chat box within the app, you can ask Rio questions about anything and it will suggest articles for you to read or listen to. Sounds interesting, but how does that actually work? Rio will offer a continuous stream of fact-checked stories and accurate reporting, serving you the news directly from a library of trusted newspapers and magazines. Anytime, anywhere. Which publications? - The Wall Street Journal - Financial Times - The Washington Post - Bloomberg - The Atlantic - PLUS MORE! What does a “personal news anchor” actually mean? Unlike platforms that dictate what you should know, with Rio you’ll have a conversation about your interests and preferences. Feel free to ask Rio questions or let them know what you want to learn about, and Rio will provide you with recommendations for the top news and the best articles from around the world. Wow! This sounds AMAZING, how do I start chatting with Rio? Good news, we have just launched today and it is completely FREE to use! (Yes, you read that correctly, 100% free). Sign up at: https://www.rionews.ai/ Here are some example questions to get you started: - What is the latest in tech news? - What can I expect in the world of tech in 2024? - Tell me about Elon Musk's race to space. Let me know what questions you ask Rio in the comments below!

Absolutely brilliant concept! Your promotional video left me amazed at the flawless execution of your approach to the constantly evolving news distribution industry. In my view, it's one of the most important applications of AI within an app that I've encountered. Typically, I'm not one to follow the news closely due to my focus on work, but your solution has made me more open to integrating daily news into my routine. It allows me to curate my feed to avoid being overwhelmed by the usual distractions of fear and hate. Truly commendable! Cant forget the UI, it looks great. Congrats to the Rio Team on your launch!

Hey @rio_ainews as someone who has an email full of news subscriptions from Forbes, Techcrunch, TLDR, I love how Rio reshaping our news consumption! The AI personalization aspect is spot on. Wondering if you've thought about integrating deeper analytics for users to track their reading habits or interests over time? This could offer valuable insights for personal growth or awareness

How will you prevent it from being an echo chamber if it's built based on the user taste and beliefs?
Caitlin Macdonald
Maker
@gaetan_gueraud Hello Gaëtan! Great question, Rio is personal in the sense that it offers you news that is interesting to you, for example, if you are not that interested in the latest developments in science it will not show you this story first. To avoid you being stuck in an echo chamber, Rio will show you different perspectives on the topics that do interest you. I hope this helps answer your question, however, if not let me know. We can't wait for you to explore Rio.
