RE: Contest ||Crypto mining fundamentals
Thank you to everyone who commented here and shared their opinions. I know you are all making every effort to guide newcomers, and my intention was not to point fingers at you. The problem is not limited to this user only, and I am aware that he is not a newcomer.
However, I have observed that mostly newcomers are involved in these kinds of activities. Recently, my friend @kouba01 also caught similar cases in the crypto academy.
My point was that there should be a specific pinned post in the Newcomers' Community about AI abuse. This post should list users who have been warned, muted, or banned, with examples of their actions, and explicitly caution newcomers.
This way, if newcomers come to the platform with the intention of earning through AI abuse, they will understand the consequences. When they see that many users who engage in AI abuse and vote farming are being muted or banned, they will be deterred from continuing these actions.
And my friend @inspiracion is right; there should be an additional achievement task related to AI abuse, similar to how there is one for plagiarism. I think that would be a great idea.
Moreover, If you guys can think of any out-of-the-box solutions to tackle this problem, it would be appreciated. Thank you once again for your time. 😊

AI-based content is trending nowadays, and this is not a good thing. And you are right that mostly newcomers are doing this. I think it would be good when the greeters verify a task; they can add the post of that link that you are mentioning in the comment, and when the newcomer reads the verification comment, he or she will also read that post, and in this way they can avoid it from the beginning.
Some YouTubers are also misleading people by painting a rosy picture of earning opportunities. Watch this video, especially from 4:50 to 5:00 minutes. In it, the person claims you can generate content using ChatGPT and earn money on Steemit.
Furthermore, he also explains other things incorrectly. Very misleading video...
