Bluesky’s new app is an AI for customizing your feed
Why it matters: Attie aims to allow non-coders to build applications on the AT Protocol, potentially expanding its developer base.
- Attie, the new app from the Bluesky team, is an AI assistant for customizing social media feeds.
- Jay Graber (former Bluesky CEO) and Paul Frazee (CTO) unveiled Attie at the Atmosphere conference.
- Attie is powered by Anthropic’s Claude and built on Bluesky’s underlying AT Protocol (atproto).
- Users can create custom feeds with natural language, such as requesting posts about specific cultural topics, initially within a standalone Attie app.
- The plan is to integrate Attie's custom feeds into Bluesky and other atproto apps.
- Eventually, Attie will empower users to "vibe-code" their own apps on the atproto, making the open protocol accessible to those without coding experience, as stated by Graber.
Bluesky's team has launched Attie, an AI assistant powered by Anthropic's Claude, designed to allow users to create custom social media feeds using natural language. This initial capability, built on Bluesky's AT Protocol, is just the first step towards enabling non-coders to "vibe-code" entire applications on the open protocol, according to former CEO Jay Graber.
