  • Grounding the Bluesky Hype

    Grounding the Bluesky Hype
    Nov 20 2024

    Within the last week, Bluesky has grown in popularity with many Christian authors and pastors announcing that they are moving to the new platform. Some have even considered deleting Twitter altogether.


    We hope this episode helps Christian leaders consider whether or not to use Bluesky, as well as better consider how the social internet is changing overall.


    In this episode we discuss: What is Bluesky? Why did it grow now? We discuss how the idea of link impression isn't new. It's the new ecosystem of the internet. Bluesky may buck the trend of that ecosystem, but that won't change the internet. Or will it? Is decentralized social media the solution to billionaire control? Or is just another media fad?


    Thanks for listening. Note: ChatGPT was used to create one of the background images for the YouTube thumbnail.

    Machines of Loving Grace?

    Are we underestimating just how radical the upside of AI could be?


    Dario Amodei, the CEO of Anthropic, recently wrote a five-point essay to outlines how great the benefits of AI might be based upon recent history, current AI technologies, and the potential future of work.


    Joel Jacob, Andrew Noble, and Austin Gravely discuss the valuable insights that Amodei offers, as well as the shortcomings.
