RE: Who will create the content for the Bid-bots to 'promote' in the future?
I think the problem is we have forgotten that BOTs are meant to remove repetitive tasks from humans so humans con be free to create an thrive.
What i mean is that BOTs at least on STEEM platform have been poorly used for self profit and not to help us use the platform for what it was meant to.
Greed is what drives bot owners...
I'm an automation engineer and i have an army of bots running behind me and my proyects but them all are used in a responsible way to promote the principles of the platform.
Many people is unable to see that BOTs properly used are there to help us, and instead of fight all BOTs we need to fight the bad bots...
But well, that's very difficult to achieve because no one agrees what the platform is about... And while we try to educate and show all the possibilites to have the many understand what is wrong with some of what the few do...
The greedy bad boys are smiling and taking it all...
Yes, I think there are good uses for automation and I'm not against all the bots - @transparencybot @grammarbot @duplibot @badcontent, @cheetah, etc, etc.
The worst offenders are the non-contactable bid-bots, that have no black/whitelist, and seem to never remove any votes that are clearly placed on absolute crap.
When they know it's crap, but wont remove a bid because they'll lose 2/3 SP for the curation..... money over content/platform.
I was making a non profit BID-bot designed for the Spanish language reality (500 K SP curating 4000 active users)
But i dropped the project as it will not call the greedy ones and the rebelious ones would not support any bid bot.
The way i see it:
As long as there is no ethic and responsible counterpart to something the sheep will keep using blindly what there is...
As a extreme simili example :
Western societies have been Secular for a few hundred years, in France being a Catholic is a sin against the State, that is what has allowed islam (especially bad part of it) to pierce and attrack the ones looking for alternatives because they are nor secular... So their message is join our religion, join the social revolutions... (I dare say this here... in france i would go to jail for saying this in a bar)
PS: I am an agnostic and have nothing agaisnt responsible religious people of any creed
I just like to match block-chain problems to society problems (Maybe we can work out solutions to both)
I like your thinking and efforts to do this as it sounds like the promised land we are seeking.
