Not at all. Jay wants to stay focused on driving forward new things. The CEO role is intensely org/operations and this move frees her up to do that

Big day! @jay.bsky.team@bsky.brid.gy will remain deeply involved as CIO and I'm personally excited she's dedicating more time on the future of atproto.

I'm also very pleased that @toni.bsky.team@bsky.brid.gy is joining us as the interim CEO. He seems like a thoughtful, experienced person who cares about the open internet.

I think this is super real, and I want the conversation to move here. The longer we stay in the "is it useful" debate, the longer we defer taking action to protect ourselves in a changed world.

2026-03-08T22:01:07Z

My most optimistic take is that IT departments in non-software-oriented companies might be able to expand their scope to creating and maintaining inhouse software. Based on the level of expertise still required in the current generation of models, I think that's a reasonable idea

Regarding the employment future around software, it's hard to make predictions right now without knowing where the model capabilities land. I barely know how to think about hiring right now.

This would essentially displace the saas industry and distribute the jobs outwards, and - you know, hopefully - lead to a better software industry, because shrinkwrapped software from megafirms sucks anyway

I am pretty concerned about a world where there's only 2-3 companies that can run these models. I have been spending the last few days idly musing about a coop that sets up hardware and runs the open models.

2026-03-08T22:01:07Z

Somebody recently posted here about how people ai coding are able to solve their own needs but not make good software for other people. That tracks to me. That's where I think dedicated professionals could still be very necessary. Again, at the current model abilities.

Unfortunately I don’t think the difficulty ramp of many servers is as high as you’re suggesting, especially because many of them are small operators with no resources to challenge it

The good parts were about asserting your rights to privacy or ownership through cryptography

The bad parts were about how “and they can’t do anything about it” and “laws don’t exist for me now”

From my perspective, AI can be used for good and for bad, and I’m asking myself how it can improve personal computing. I think agents can make people more independent from big business, not less.

2026-03-05T21:58:49Z

Part of why we've openly talked about our use of coding agents is to be transparent about it. It's also because it's a shocking change to our practice, and I frankly don't know how I could avoid talking about it as a software enthusiast. I genuinely can't believe what these things can do.

2026-03-05T21:58:49Z

On a personal level, I've been a software engineer since I was 12. I joke about the quality of my code, but the reality is that I take it incredibly seriously. The source of those jokes is humility to how difficult it is to write complex software and avoid bugs, or outages.
