Show HN: AI Law Tracker – one audited API for US, EU and global AI law

A new Show HN project wants to be the one-stop shop for AI rules: a searchable tracker and simple data feed covering U.S. states, Congress, Europe, and other countries, with links back to official government sources. The creator’s pitch is easy to understand: AI laws are now moving so fast that even professionals can’t keep up by hand, especially when Europe reshuffles deadlines and headlines make everything sound more dramatic than it is. In plain English, this tool promises to tell businesses what rules are real, when they start, and what might apply to them.

But the comments quickly turned into a classic internet side quest: can you trust something that looks a little vibey? One early critic came in swinging with “Holy vibe coding Batman!” and said the rough mobile design made the whole thing feel less credible. Another commenter pushed the distrust even harder, basically saying that in the age of AI-made websites, if the builder doesn’t put their real-world reputation on the line, they’re out. Ouch.

Then the thread took a serious turn: one lawyerly warning said people using remote AI tools may risk losing attorney-client privilege, which is the legal protection for private lawyer-client conversations. Suddenly, this wasn’t just about messy design — it was about whether using AI around legal work could create real danger. And perhaps the most Hacker News comment of all? Someone zeroed in on the site’s claim that a human checks the records and demanded the receipts: what does that actually mean? In other words, the crowd likes the idea, but they’re absolutely not giving out trust for free.
