Hey, this is actually useful but my main concern is around how confident the score feels. A 0–100 quiet score looks very precise, but noise is highly subjective and context-dependent. For example, a stadium 300m away may be silent most days but terrible during events. A helipad 14m away may be rare but very loud when active. Construction can be noisy, but only if it is still active, during working hours, and on the same side of the building.

Right now it feels like the score is mostly based on “noise source exists nearby + distance,” which is a good starting point, but it can create false confidence as well.

Once the browser starts passing webpage content into an AI assistant that also has access to email/calendar/etc, the boring details suddenly matter a lot. A page title should never get to behave like a user instruction.

A fake video does not have to survive expert analysis. Just the first few hours of outrage is enough.

That is what i feel is the real problem. The verification may eventually get it right, but the internet moves much faster than that.
