"Attie was announced at the Bluesky-sponsored ATmosphere AT protocol conference by former CEO and now chief innovation officer Jay Graber. As Graber and co-host Paul Frazee, Bluesky CTO, explained, Attie is an agentic app that lets users 'vibe code' their own social feeds."
"Following widespread derision from Bluesky users, who denounced Bluesky's investment in generative AI products and flatly rejected Attie's integration on the open source platform, Graber posted a response: 'We hear the concerns about AI. Our goal is to use this technology to give people greater control, not to generate content.'"
"Attie uses AI to help you create custom feeds without having to know how to code. We'll look into ways to take into account the preferences expressed by people who've blocked @attie.ai."
Attie, a new AI product from Bluesky, has faced significant backlash, being blocked by 125,000 users shortly after its announcement. With only 1,500 followers, the blocking rate is notably high, surpassing even major accounts like the White House. Attie aims to help users customize their social feeds and reduce misinformation. Despite the negative reception, Bluesky's leadership expressed a commitment to addressing user concerns and improving the technology based on feedback received during the ATmosphere conference.
