You can provide prompts for the content you’d like to see, and the AI will pull relevant posts.
Bluesky has announced a new AI assistant that helps you personalize your social feed by providing natural-language prompts.
The AI assistant, Attie, was built on Bluesky’s open-source AT Protocol by the company’s chief innovation officer (and former CEO), Jay Graber, and her new Exploration team. In a blog post, Graber describes Attie as “an agentic social app and custom feed builder” that will be offered as an optional standalone app.
Attie is currently in beta, and those interested can register to join a waitlist. When you are cleared off the list, you’ll be able to sign in to the platform using your Atmosphere credentials, TechCrunch notes. Those credentials work for any social app built using the AT Protocol, including Bluesky.
In the app, you’ll be able to describe the feed you’d like to read. Sample prompts seen on Attie’s website include “Posts about folklore, mythology, and traditional music, especially Celtic traditions,” “Poetry, long-form fiction craft, and writing process from people I follow,” and “Builders working on agent infrastructure and open protocol design.”
Graber pitches the experience as something that “feels more like having a conversation than configuring software. You describe the sort of posts you want to see, and the coding agent builds the feed you described.”
The purpose of Attie is to help people use AI to surface the social content they’d like to see. Most social networks currently use AI to boost engagement, harvest training data, and “shape what users see and believe through systems they can’t inspect and didn’t choose,” Graber says. “We think AI should serve people, not platforms.”
At launch, Attie will let users build and view custom feeds. Later on, it will be integrated into Bluesky and other AT Protocol apps and eventually help people vibe-code their own social media apps, TechCrunch reports.
