The platform includes a queue for users to submit and upvote papers, and incorporates feedback to improve explainers.", "body_md": "Hi all,\n\nI recently built (and am continuing to improve) intuitivepapers.ai to help me study and understand AI research papers.\n\nFor me, it's important to build intuition for concepts, and when reading a research paper, that can take me a while. Also, papers can be unnecessarily intimidating or verbose. I also find myself having to jump around to prior papers to understand the preceding work. My motivation was to be able to read an explainer in one place that:\n\n- explains the preceding foundations required to understand the paper - provides intuition - uses plain language where possible - provides concrete implementation examples, so I can understand how the idea is actually implemented in practice - cross references the paper against accompanying source code\n\nI originally started building this as something for myself, but I thought others might find this helpful too.\n\nNew paper explainers are published regularly. There is a queue where you can submit and upvote papers for explaining.\n\nAt the bottom of each explainer is a feedback form where you can suggest improvements. I will incorporate these into already published explainers, but I will also incorporate the lessons into future posts as well.\n\nLooking forward to everyone's feedback, and I hope you find this helpful!\n\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48589755](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48589755)\n\nPoints: 1\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-a-website-to-understand-and-study-ai-papers", "canonical_source": "https://intuitivepapers.ai/", "published_at": "2026-06-18 18:49:36+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-06-18 19:01:32.626081+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-research", "ai-tools", "large-language-models", "ai-products"], "entities": ["intuitivepapers.ai"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-a-website-to-understand-and-study-ai-papers", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-a-website-to-understand-and-study-ai-papers.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-a-website-to-understand-and-study-ai-papers.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-a-website-to-understand-and-study-ai-papers.jsonld"}}
