TL;DR: Bluesky sends all content to a 3rd party that use it for generative AI content

I am reposting a thread from @/Oric_y on twitter, you can read it here !

So there's a lot of artists wanting to hop to BlueSky as an alternative to Twitter. You may want to be made aware that any and all posts to it are fed through 3rd party AI and will be used as training data for image/text generation.

Bluesky uses a 3rd party service to label posts contents. For this, they use "http://thehive.ai". Bluesky is open source, so this can be confirmed here.By itself, this would not be an issue. AI for labeling posts isn't problematic. However, hive also provides services for generative AI (images, text, video). Which, again, can be easily confirmed on their own website here.

Reading their privacy policy, they collect anything submitted and will use it as training data for ALL of their services. In full, here

Which brings back to the initial statement. Every post submitted to BlueSky is also submitted to Hive, where it will be used as training data for generative AI.
