Thank you so much!!
I am super-honored to have coordinated the distribution of this powerful, cross-border investigation as part of @elclip.bsky.social!
Tomorrow: #BigTechsInvisibleHand, an investigation by 17 media outlets in 13 countries, reveals nearly 3,000 lobbying actions by companies such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Meta, and TikTok to curb regulations and protect their interests. @techpolicypress.bsky.social @lighthousereports.com
Oh, I now see why I'm kinda obsessed with AI Agents. They're just workflows in disguise. Workflows are my thing.
If you're coming to Bogotá next week, see you at the @festivalgabo.bsky.social!
NEW RESEARCH about Bluesky on Bluesky:
pewrsr.ch/4mDKCrx
- 43% of the news influencers we studied last year are now on Bluesky - but most are also on X (Twitter)

- rate of posting increased in 2025
I was ghosted for a meeting, so I made an app.

It's my first app ever.
It took me 50 min.
Vibe coding is a thing, indeed.
It's in Spanish + tailored to Colombian people.
I'll likely refine it later with better copy + content, but I'm proud of myself and ChatGPT, lol
While influencers can be a great way to connect with new audiences, there are still concerns that social content creators could be fueling the misinformation crisis.
And we are quite close to see synthetic news influencers. We already have. Think of all the funny spin offs of "News Daddy" (Dylan Page) on TikTok at the moment. News Grandma, News Puppy, News Baby...
In 2024, a Pew Research study found that about one in five Americans (21%) — including 37% of adults under 30 — said they regularly got news from influencers: “It's kind of like the parasocial thing where it feels like I know them.”

5/ We need to stop pretending this is far off.
The who behind the news is already changing, and we’re not ready.
4/ This changes everything.
It’s not just journalists vs. influencers anymore. It’s humans vs. AI-driven personas optimized for engagement.
3/ Since then, AI has accelerated the game.
Tools like ElevenLabs + HeyGen + Google's VO3 let anyone create realistic synthetic influencers for marketing, for content, even for news.
2/ We talked about how trust in news is shifting from institutions to individuals. Gen Z and Gen Alpha are growing up with creators, not anchors.
The old playbook is broken.

1/ In January, I wrote about talent-driven journalism + news influencers. That post took off, and a few weeks later I spoke to Teen Vogue about the future of journalism.
The article’s now live.

I'm here again, wondering if I should learn Python🐍 when I know I have to.
If you think carbon markets are empowering Indigenous communities, read this. Spoiler: In Colombia, it's not justice, it might be just PR for Big Oil.

Oh look! It's me and my new AI and journalism gang 🚀✨
No hype, just a thoughtful, hands-on exploration of how we can effectively address the pain points in our newsrooms. Beyond the tech, I left with a full heart thanks to this brilliant group of people 🫰
@migueldobrich.bsky.social yayyyyy! So good to see you here.
Super excited to be part of this new group of AI enthusiasts! Let’s make AI more than just a buzzword. Let’s turn it into a tool that makes reporting sharper, audience engagement stronger, and newsroom workflows smoother. Let’s gooo! 🚀
I won’t be able to go to #ISOJ2025 so you people go and enjoy it!
Just watched Flow and now I’m officially THAT person who overanalyzes endings 😂🐈⬛ The flood was defo coming back, so the animals either:
• Died
• Got saved by the mutant whale
• Were abducted like the bird
• Survived on their own. This was not their first flood.
More alternatives?

If you want people to use Mastodon, make it usable. Not everyone has the time or bandwidth to climb that learning curve like you do.
