What is Unbaited?
Unbaited is a browser extension designed to enhance the user experience on X (formerly Twitter). It actively filters out engagement bait and inflammatory content, aiming to provide a cleaner, less emotionally charged feed by leveraging artificial intelligence to analyze tweets as they appear.
Utilizing Groq's fast API and a user-selected large language model (LLM), Unbaited assesses tweet content in real-time. When a tweet is identified as potential engagement bait or inflammatory, the extension automatically blurs it. Users retain control and can choose to reveal any hidden tweet with a simple click. It is presented as a prototype, requiring users to provide their own Groq API key and use a Chromium-based browser.
