RE: HOW HARD WILL BE REBUILD MY REPUTATION (The Whales also make Mistakes)
Hi @alifton, as far as I understand, the problem with bots is that they were generating too much spam, for now we are more than 60,000 users, what represents a small portion compared to facebook or twitter, maybe when we are millions of active users, no bots will be necessary for assisting with curation.
@ocep85 From my understanding of the roadmap presented, that is exactly what we're all hoping for. Millions of eyes could quickly do the work of thousands of bots. However, until we have that kind of user base bots like @cheetah are the best stop gap at our disposal to help real human users in deciding what is and isn't appropriate.
@cheetah was trained (very well I might add) to spot likely plagiarized content someone simply cut and paste to Steemit, in the hopes of slipping one by and gaming the system for financial gain through copyright infringement.
Just to be clear, @cheetah was designed to never flag a post but instead comments on it and allows a real human to make the final call on how to vote given the evidence presented. If you'd like to know more about @cheetah @anyx would be the best person to ask because he knows way more about @cheetah than I do.
