I’m going to reserve judgement on this since letting the user control their own feed is a good one. If it shits out a bunch of ads, which I doubt is possible because AI is hard to control, then yeah, it sucks donkey balls.
Attie, which interim CEO Toni Schneider referred to as a “new product” that’s “not part of the Bluesky app” in an interview with TechCrunch, allows users to essentially vibe code their own custom feed using natural language prompts — or even build their own Bluesky app alternative on top of the service’s Atmosphere protocol, an ecosystem of interoperable social applications.
“You control it, you shape it, without having to write code or know how to set up these feeds,” Schneider enthused.
Yeah, I think people are wary of AI , which can be for good or bad, same way people can be pro AI, which can also be good or bad.
That being said, this sounds like it’s basically getting it to help you curate what you see from the system, and needs no technical knowledge. I’m uncertain if it involves processing tweets through an LLM , but if it’s open internet, it’s probably being shoved into some LLM anyway.
from my interpretation it’s not letting the user control anything except the prompt you give the AI, it then returns what it thinks you should build your list (and no doubt influenced by corporate interests)

You may be right and they’re using weasel language, but that’s not what they’re implying:
