RE: AI is stupid: Humans Judgment Matters
Steemit should just restrict the post, comment and vote endpoints. If somebody wants to write code that uses these, they should submit a project proposal to Steemit to get specific auth keys. That should at least slow down the creation of "bad" bots.
Slow yes, but bots are very patient. That would slow down innovation in the third-party ecosystem that surrounds Steem. And, speaking in general terms about cryptocurrencies, you want to encourage third-party innovation as much as possible. Such registrations become unwieldy and quite unenforceable because Steeminc becomes a bottle neck for the issuing and enforcement of those keys. It's also another centralisation step that might be a step too far for the decentralisation absolutists among us.
