So how are OpenAI’s and Musk’s legal teams using AI? Are they? What internal legal tools might they be building?

Bluesky is different and thus immune to many of the problems with existing social media platforms up to now: it is built on open protocols so it’s possible to create a network of platforms where your UI to interact with those platforms (where your social graph is universal) is your personal agent.

“In this new landscape of AI-driven product development, a new breed of founder is emerging. They are the tinkerers. The readers, writers, and artists. The curious neophiles. The multidimensional autodidacts. The rangy polymaths. The well-rounded citizens.” - Dan Shipper @danshipper.bsky.social

If you don’t know who Jay Graber is, you will. She’s the woman behind Blue Sky. Everyone’s talking about it. In just the past week, Bluesky’s user base has exploded, more than doubling to over 16 million as people scramble for an alternative to X, Facebook, and Threads. 🧵

Hope is not simply the expectation of something better, but the courage to work towards it 💙🦋

There’s more than just going over to a new platform or even porting over you’re social graph with an automated tool. There’s wiring up the connectome with interactions and conversation. I’ll be trying to do my part.

Okay, I'm back on "social media." Let's see if I can do it this time without getting so sickened. I will employ tougher skin and better discretion. Fingers crossed, for us all.

For the new techies here: 1. Bluesky is built on an open social protocol called ATProtocol 2. You CAN & SHOULD hack on this stuff. An open innovation network is our fundamental strategy for beating centralized attention-economy enshittification. 3. HackerNews for ATProto: frontpage.fyi

I follow 3900 people on Twitter, and 1600 of them are also on Bluesky. Fantastic tool for easily porting over your followers to here: chromewebstore.google.com/detail/sky-f...

This work is groundbreaking. It uncovers hidden connections we often miss because we perceive the world in low dimensions, limiting our ability to see complex, interconnected systems. By revealing these links, this method could help us to see the world in a new way. news.mit.edu/2024/graph-b...

Four things: 1. Bucky Fuller…build a new system that outdoes the old one 2. Three simultaneous phases: triage, transition, transformation. What are you drawn to? 3. What do we have in common? Starting point 4. A sense of real curiosity for everything

Great discussion between Daniel Schmachtenberger, Gregory Landua, and Jason Snyder. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0q2zQR4YbXoUPAInJwIPdi?si=auXr0hPDSLCe5xqq5FkZsQ

Excellent episode of the Jim Rutt Show with Matthew Pirkowski. If some of Matt’s ideas seem hard to grasp, this episode brings good clarity. https://youtu.be/Zc9O7A1aano

“We still have this old mindset that you have to do something perfectly and correctly the first time, and then can never change it. That doesn't serve us anymore. Everything we create is now iterative. Everything is a version!” - Tiago Forte

“The felt-sense of being an agent in an emergent system that is "alive" must be a feeling of *serendipity*. Emergent order must feel like good luck, all the time.” - Peter Wang

Thanks for the invite @jay.bsky.social! So excited to see this moving forward.
