He wants humane and human-focused AI.

Peter Wang wants gov't regulators to enforce ATProto user-intent.
( @reiver note: I think that would be a very bad idea — a cure that would be worse than the disease.)

The same person (Peter Wang) is talking about licensing — i.e., requiring gov't permission.
( @reiver note: again, I think that would be a very bad idea — a cure that would be worse than the disease.)

Rabble ( @rabble ) talking about how — if you had someone else's PDS user-data on your phone, German regulation would require you to file paperwork every single time you cross a German state line. And, if you don't, the whole social-media is illegal under German GDPR law.

I brought up an issue regarding regulation —
How do you create a law that distinguishes the difference between thr learning that humans do versus learning that AIs do.
(I don't think this is a point that should be ignored — as you could end up with a cure that is worse than the disease.)

Boris Mann ( @boris ) talking about if the community made their ATProto docs CC-NC, then Bluesky company could not contribute.
Oops — unintended consequence.

Conner Ruhl mentioning that ATProto user-intents is giving people a false sense of security.
Bad actor won't care about them.
If you want to be private, you need to actually make your data private!

One person pointing out that an "anti-AI intent" would prevent people from using anti-spam filters, since it is AI.
( @reiver note: I have said similar a number of times elsewhere.)

One person from Flipboard pointing out that, AI is used to look for hate-speech, and look for pornographic images, etc.
An "anti-AI" intent would block that, too.

Conner Ruhl — Bluesky's still sucks a bit in terms of onboarding, because it lacks some of the AI necessary to do that.

One person saying — builders have mostly left Mastodon (and gone to Bluesky), because when developers try to build on Mastodon, they get yelled at, and maybe even receive death threats.

@reiver facts. This is why advocates of Fedi are starting to leave and go back to corporate social media as well.
Imagine being so shitty of a human being that you make open source devs go work for a for-profit company.

A person talking about — it is difficult to build a collaborative filtering (AI) because 3rd parties don't have enough data, that Bluesky company has.
Ex: what the person looked at, etc.
