Bluesky, a social media platform, has announced the development of an AI-powered companion app called ‘Attie’ to allow users to customize their feeds. Unveiled at the Atmosphere conference in Vancouver, Attie is designed to let users describe the types of posts they want to see, which the app then uses to build a personalized feed. Developed with Anthropic’s Claude and based on Bluesky’s AT Protocol, Attie is currently in beta testing. Bluesky emphasizes that no coding knowledge is necessary for users to leverage this AI tool. Despite some user resistance to more AI integration on the platform, Bluesky aims to offer a more curated experience. The company recently secured $100 million in funding, highlighting its commitment to expanding its AI initiatives.
