Here’s @rude1.blacksky.team, Founder and CEO of @blackskyweb.xyz and Excellence Award Winner of the #OpenSocialAwards. Blacksky is a beacon of choice, community, and agency in a bleak social media landscape. They’re building the tools they need and sharing them with everyone.
In agreement with @eclecticcapital.bsky.social analysis here. Blacksky’s business model thus far has been patronage which is what gives me freedom in my leadership decisions (building things like Assembly, etc) “Coordination IS the moat” “[Technology] has not democratized economic value”

Tech CEOs like to argue that AI will disrupt entry level jobs that involve research & analysis. Interestingly enough they don’t say this about tech jobs despite this being where AI seems to have found better product market fit than in displacing junior lawyers and financial analysts. I wonder why?
