Thanks Tom! Max from Lateral here, we made the extension. We're using the Lateral API to recommend news, specifically the news recommender.

The news recommender pulls in content from various news sources RSS feeds and processes them so we can recommend them. So the curation is regarding the sources not the articles. We started collecting articles in November last year, there's actually over 330K now.

You can read a bit more about the news recommender here: https://lateral.io/docs/text-matching/pre-populated-recommen...
