RE: Facebook A.I. Robots Shut Down After Creating Their Own Language!
I could understand sharing this story in your own words, and linking to the article you read, but you have literally copied and pasted half of that article, and now you want to earn money for it. That's called plagiarism, and is illegal.
Read my comment about copying the text from Youtube.. which has been copied onto 10,000 sites.
However i do appreciate you saying something.. i agree people should not copy people's works and try to create money from it.
Would be a big problem here on steemit in the future i could imagine.
A newbie could write the most awesome article.. someone with more followers could copy it and make all the money.. that would suck.
Do you think i did something wrong when copying the text from Youtube? I would think it would be free for everyone to use.
I don't want to steal peoples content, let me know what you think :)
Just APA cite it and you should be ok :)
What do you mean sorry :)
Oh no worries: use this link- http://www.citationmachine.net/apa/cite-a-website/manual
Cool ta for that, much appreciated :)
No problem!
In my opinion, which is only worth so much, no, you shouldn't have copied the text from YouTube.
Steemit is different from all 10,000 of the sites you mention. Steemit gives people a place to earn money for posting "valuable content" (which is a relative term), but it's a lot more than that.
If people just copy and paste the same content from other social media, we're just gonna look like other social media. Steemit is supposed to be different.
I have no problem with people sharing a link to a YouTube video as part of their content, but explain it in your own words. Talk about why you're interested in the video in the first place. Talk about the subject of the video. Talk about the people in it. Steemit is about being rewarded for original content and ideas.
The same ol' same will be the downfall of this wonderful community.
Yeah i agree.. i appreciate the pointers and will try to come up with my own description :)
