Bluesky’s next product is an AI assistant that helps build custom social media feeds

Bluesky is the latest social media platform to throw its hat into the AI ​​chatbot ring. Bluesky, but more specifically its chief innovation officer Jay Graber and his new exploration team, have created a new AI assistant called Attie, designed to help users create personalized feeds. Graber called Attie an “agentic social application” built on its open source framework called AT Protocol.

To use Attie, users can enter natural language prompts to generate social feeds without having to know how to code. On the Attie website, examples include prompts like “Show me electronic music and experimental sounds from people in my network” or “Builders working on agent infrastructure and open protocol design.”

“It’s more like a conversation than configuring software,” Graber Attie described in a blog post. “You describe the type of posts you want to see and the coding agent creates the feed you described.”

Graber added that Attie is a separate app from Bluesky and users don’t need to use the new AI assistant if they don’t want to. However, given that Attie and Bluesky were built on the same framework, this could mean that there will be a cross-app implementation between the two or any other application built on the AT protocol. Attie is currently available in closed beta by invitation only, but anyone interested can join the waitlist on their website in the meantime.
