Digg tries again, this time as an AI news aggregator

SMRTR summary

Digg has relaunched as an AI-focused news aggregator after its Reddit-style reboot failed due to bot problems and lack of differentiation. The new version ranks trending AI news by pulling real-time engagement data from X, tracking influential voices like Sam Altman to surface what matters most. If successful, Digg plans to expand beyond AI, and could potentially drive traffic back to publishers struggling from Google's algorithm changes.
