Just blocked it.

+1 to that. I thought I blocked it yesterday, but only muted. Remedying that now.

The others have been blocked just blocked atti.

Blocking him also cuts on the notifications noise as he keeps liking random posts.

Fun that the people who run this website actively don't understand/dislike its user base.

By all means block anything AI-related, but it'd be ironic if JD Vance lost his position as Bluesky's Most Universally Loathed Schmuck to a bot.

...since it's "A.i.," I think it's justifiable to suspicious of mission creep and additional "A.i." crap to follow that DOES scrape and steal data and contribute to disinfo and bullshit. It was also AGGRESSIVELY marketed as "A.i." - down to the domain name - to a platform of users that HATE "A.i."

I wish they had disclosed more about it's design scope. Things like node count and training time. Those determine how much energy it used, and thus how much we should hate it.

i'm speculating here but i think the foregrounding of AI is a strong signaling choice that was both totally unnecessary (to your point, it's a feed creator; these kinds of systems have existed for more than a decade) and also totally the wrong note to try to hit at this moment, socially.

Now, will they hear this and scrap the ai garbage?

Just blocked it!

It's suppose to be rather limited and help with creating feeds. I have trouble believing any LLM fanatic would make their agent program "Limited"

It means I don't have to fucking see it and that's enough for me.

$100m seed round to get to the top of the block list is money well spent that surely couldnt have been used to help anything else.

I'm doing my part!
