Detection of AI-generated content is impossible in some months.
Search engines will handle it in a way like always links and onpage matters.
Overall i think hive should transform in the next time ( medium term) to a neutral information carrier to become a real web3 foundation.
Like no up and downvotes, Hive becomes gas/gov token and rewards move to L2 and smart contracts.
With RC delegations it opens the door for everyone and removes all emotions from L1.
Besides this i think anon transactions should be implemented on layer 1 on liquid funds like HBD and Hive. Not because the use case for the first anon stablecoin would be huge, also to increase user experience and build a sustainable way for social + finance.
The AI will become better and better, so I think general rewarding becomes worse and worse ( it is already bad with autovoting, POB is failed algo) and proof of engagement and true value can be in a more local way introduced without mothership (hive) influence.
Everything else in "improving" POB is IMO a waste of time and bad for user experience.
But i am really sure it will be most likely a fork from somebody in the future.
I'd agree with @seckorama approach, as long as it something that I think is cool, it's a good reason for upvote. Maybe it's not that the PoB fails as such, maybe it's about brains of voters ;-)
(btw I can't see Hive going the way you are describing here)
@gtg, I don't know where Hive will go, I don't have such a broad view to see it :)
but, in this crypto eclipse, when everybody is moaning about something, I know the Hive as something almost completely sustainable, it can work on its own... I don't even know why the tendency for everything to grow, of course, it has to grow but not by force... the only point at which the Hive is connected to the rest of the world is actually these centralized exchanges where you can exchange Hive for fiat. Everything else works internally. Everything you have in the crypto world you have in Hive. It's not globally huge, but, you've got games, you've got a social network for blogging, you've got video content, podcasts, lighting connection to BTC, and, as people start moving from failed crypto projects to Hive, they'll realize the value.
Well, as I said, I don't see the whole picture but that's what I think is important.
As far as AI is concerned, I don't think it is a threat (yet). There are always humans behind AI production and again, it depends on how they use it to create some content. If it's bad, fuck them, they don't get my vote.
That's why live curators are important in my opinion. To be able to separate quality from spam.
Well, this is all just my opinion, no financial advice or anything like that :) , it's just the way I see things from my point of view.
yeah as long as something is cool or valuable it doesn't matter if ai or not.
Generally, general content scales more in terms of inflating quality into the mass with ai.
What would be your longterm view to it? Is a neutral base Layer that bad?
