Twitter lets you ingest their firehose and engineer your own algorithms on top of that and lets other people subscribe to those? Cool. Show me. Blueksy also has unique labelers and moderation lists. My favorite is the politician donor label

If you're generating long text to send to people and summarizing long text that people send to you, you're just wasting other people's time. They also talk about democratizing art- are they using LLMs' probably vast corp

I wonder if the end-goal is AI advertising "nudges" based on some sort of psychometric profile. Who needs ads when you have a mass manipulation machine. Just figure out what drives X product even if you never see it directly.
