Bots
Do I have any followers who are not bots? What's the point in bots reading and commenting on posts. So what if a computer upvotes something I post. I care about a commuters opinion as much as it cares for mine. Nothing at all.
Are you friends with bots?
Do the bots annoy you?
What's the point?
haha..I'm very intrigued by this philosophical conversation @maji.
Nothing wrong in being friends with bots. If you can have a sexual partner in a robot, why not have a bot to comment and cheer for you....Is that so wrong? ;)
Lol on so many levels
There is no difference in being friends with a bot than it is being friends with a pillow. Just because it has a function and serves you doesn't mean it cares anything for you.
the question is why do you want anyone to care for you? Do you think they actually care for you? It's a myth/
Ah it's not a myth that people care for other people. They may not care for you or me but people do care for other people.
I think i care because I'm human. I need other humans to have some kind of feelings towards me, good or bad, to feel alive.
I disagree there. Not because I want to argue. But I think the feeling of love and wanting someone is based on one's own fear of living alone. Human beings have to fragment as a community and start living alone more for this world to be more sustainable. Which means less sex, less interaction. We are like rats now - breeding and eating all the garbage. There's beauty in solitude and there's strength in it. One has to go back to human roots. Hunting, gathering, living on fruits, honey, raw meat etc. language is like agriculture..it's made socialising go on speed. We should go back to sign language too...and squeak and show gestures to communicate and for warfare we should use stones...
We will get there regardless...it's only a matter of time. Even if there's no thermo nuclear warfare, we will know how to dismantle what we've built. Progress is going backwards, not going forward. Love and compassion is pretentious. Love and compassion is about dinning out every second night, going on holidays to resorts, watching large scale ochestrated sports mainly driven by consumerism. I'm not being negative. There's no point reforming. A Nuclear Weapon is the most progressive thing man has ever made. It beats the bread and the pill!
If you believe that, why don't you find a jungle and live there on your own instead of being here talking to me. Yeah i agree we should do some things the old ways but common man. You want to get rid of language and fight wars with stones? And at the same time nukes are good?
I think maybe your typing for the sake of typing.
You are missing the sequence. First comes the thermo nuclear war. Then comes ruins and from the ruins will emerge people that speak to each other in sign language...and if there's a future war, it will only be fought with stones. That's where we are headed to.
Ok. Ile stick to wanting to interact with people over machines.
You might want to take some time out alone as you said people need do that for the benefit of the planet.

No, I'm not friends with any bots. I have built a bot that upvotes what it perceives as quality, but not one that begs for money or leaves annoying comments.
Bidding bots currently annoy me. Having a group of people make money off of desperate people while contributing nothing to the ecosystem annoys me. The end result that people are less able to engage with users especially new ones (like yourself).
People want to make money. People care about money more than they care about people. People feel ignored and feel undervalued because it seems like no one is listening to them. Which is true most of the time.
Wish you the best.
Thanks for your reply and for not being a bot. You built a bot that upvotes what "it" perceives as quality you said. Does your bot have a sense of humor? Does it also like good food and drink?
My bot only understands math so it doesn't have a sense of humor. It has no soul and lacks empathy. It also never has earthy needs or desires. But I keep it hidden so it doesn't bother anyone that doesn't want to be bothered.
Quality to my bot is basically a algorithm that spits out a number. To be honest it doesn't really perceive anything like all bots on this platform. It would be nice if there were bots that served as useful meet and greeters and answered questions, but that would be too helpful and wouldn't have the necessary ROI to be actually implemented. We just get the soulless kind here on Steemit.
Lol at least you admit it's soulless. Thanks for your comment even though i disagree with your logic of having bots.
