I just tried to find AI starter packs on BlueSky and confirmed that BlueSky is openly hostile to AI. I understand the reasons, it's just not where I'm at. I'll try Threads and see what happens.


I can't vouch for these, but they seem like reasonable starting points. I searched for "AI starter pack" with the quotes.

Thank you. I did follow one of those using the same search without the quotes and followed. And your second one now. I'm also cleaning up my X site to get rid of anything not AI so I can do a fair comparison.


Bluesky has lots of artists, authors, journalists, etc... who see AI as a direct threat to human creativity. Not that the AI will replace the creativity, but that it can generate slop that looks "good enough" and doesn't demand a living wage or healthcare benefits. Many of these creative types have little trust that corporate management won't try to replace them just to save a buck.


I'm sympathetic to their arguments but that doesn't lesson my need to understand AI if I'm going to help them with their concerns. Ignoring it is not an effective strategy.
