At Baitblock (https://baitblock.app), we're working on something similar. It's called the Intelligent Blocker, and has the same intended goal as your user agent 'AI' (not yet open to general public, under development right now). With it you will be able to block all Facebook posts that are for example say not from your family, or not of a specific type or from specific person.
Or comments on different Internet forums that are blatantly spammy/SEO gaming etc.
Or block authors in search results or Twitter feed or any comment that you don't like. Basically the Zapier of content filtering.
This will be available to the user as a subscription service.
Some of these thigs are not possible on mobile platforms (Android, iOS) unfortunately because the OS do not allow such access, but we hope that Android and iOS in the future open up to allow external curation systems, apart from the app platform it's self as it's in the interest of the user.
Pardon me, but what do you think is wrong with the prompt?

Try out my chrome and firefox extension Baitblock (https://baitblock.app). It adds to TL;DR for links on the internet where available. You can also submit them for others so they can save time.
Try Baitblock https://baitblock.app Baitblock has tracking resistance that also deletes first party cookies/other tracking mechanisms when it detects that you're not logged into a website.

It can remove cookie walls on many websites automatically
You should take a look at Baitblock (https://baitblock.app). We're working on something called the "Intelligent Blocker" (not yet in production, almost complete) that understands how you get to distractions in the first place. Then it removes the distracting types of comments, posts, search results, recommendations, links etc from the internet while you're working on studying.
Its kind of complex but works perfectly in trials. We also have the YouTube recommendations hider feature in the app.
Give it a shot and LMK what you think.
I'm also a user of ublock origin. No most of the things cannot be implemented in ublock origin.
1. The intelligent blocker cannot be. I've created a CV system that performs semantic page segmentation and precomputes for caching to do this (still wip).
2. First party tracking protection cannot be.
3. Cookie notice blocker cannot be. (the eventual goal here is to use NLP and block all types not based on a rigid filterlist)
4. Youtube recommendations blocker can be.
5. TL;DR of links cannot be.
6. Siteblocker, maybe but in a poor way.
Firefox support is highly requested from the feedback I've heard. There is Firefox support coming in the next minor release which fixes some bugs and adds the daily time limit per website feature.
Cheers!
Was distributed outside the store before adding to it.
I'm working on Baitblock. Baitblock is a free Chrome extension like Adblock but for distractions (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/baitblock-save-tim...). Baitblock block's distractions on the Internet while you're studying or working.
Some of the features include:
Blocking websites that you add to the block list.
Intelligent Blocker - blocks websites in the blocklist from appearing in Google Search Results, Facebook Feed, Twitter Feed, Reddit comments etc. So if a comment or result contains a link that should be block, Baitblock analyzes the structure of the page and then bocks the part and it'll be as if it was never there in the first place.
️Tracking Resistance - most other tracking protectors only block 3rd party trackers. Baitblock uses machine learning to analyse the page to determine if you're logged in or not into a website. And then delete's cookies and other tracking mechanisms on every page load on that particular website if you're not logged in.
Hide's recommendations on YouTube while you're working or studying.
Block cookie notices on websites.
You can add a 30-100 word TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read) for any webpage on the Internet. After this, other Baitblock users will be able to see that summary when they hover over that link on any website, and you would've saved humanity many hours by saving them a click. Yes, people can upvote and downvote the summaries.

Baitblock (https://baitblock.app) here:
We help you avoid distractions while working on websites and the internet by installing our Chrome extension. For example, Baitblock removes recommended videos on YouTube while you're working.
It also deals with 1st party cookie tracking. It clears cookie/storage on every page load as long as it detects that you're not logged in to the website (upcoming version removes many bugs) using machine learning (NLP).
Since there are too many cookie/gdpr popups now a days, Baitblock automatically hides them while you're working.
You can also add summaries/TL;DR for any link on a website (right click) so others dont have to click.
The end goal of Baitblock is to block all possible distractions in a webpage and save everyone's time.
The latest version of Baitblock 0.1.0 is awaiting approval with many fixes and new features.
I'm working on a browser extension called Baitblock: https://baitblock.app/
It also deals with 1st party cookie tracking. It clears cookie/storage on every page load as long as it detects that you're not logged in to the website (still buggy) using machine learning (NLP).
The next minor version (under development) will also allow you to block websites/domains from appearing from google search results, facebook feed, twitter feed and basically the entire internet.
It also blocks cookie/gdpr banners on websites.
(Signup on mobile does not work for now)
You can also add summaries/TL;DR for any link on the internet (right click) so others dont have to click.
I've a side project extension underdevelopment "Baitblock":
https://baitblock.app that helps people deal with this.
We've pretty advanced stuff coming up like in page distraction blocking using machine learning, 1st party tracking protection (deletes cookies on websites that you're not logged in to), TL;DR before clicking the link submitted by other Baitblock members, blocking sites (although it is pretty standard), etc. Keep in mind that the already implemented features have a few bugs (to put it politely), while the others are in development but this is very early preview (latest version is under store review that is shown in demo vid in site) :)
Since I'm from Pakistan, we dont have Stripe and Paypal here, so Baitblock is free for early people.
