Indeed, ‘It is the journey that matters’, as you state at the end of your publication. AI is here to stay ‘across the board’, and whether we like it or not, we have to end our days attached to it.

I remember when I was a high school student, I didn't like to use calculators, I did all calculations manually or mentally. Moreover, I did my exams with ink (pencil). At the end of high school, a teacher told me, “we know that you have mastered calculus and that you know all the formulas and procedures to apply, but time is cruel. With a calculator, you will do things faster…”. Behind these words, he gave me an HP scientific calculator, which I still have after 42 years or so.

It was my first contact with a computer system, then came the computer and from then on you know the story. In the end I had to adapt, like ‘everyone else’, to the use of the new technology. Today, AI is that calculator that I didn't want to use forty years ago.

We know that in HIVE it is dishonest to use content that is not generated by ourselves, based on the information and knowledge we have and our accumulated experience. But we cannot freely judge the content or comments made by a user lightly. 

**“He who makes the virus makes the antivirus”**, as we say in computer science. There are now countless AI detection tools on a par with those that generate them. On HIVE, if the comment is short, the user is branded as lazy, and if it is long, then he has copied it from somewhere else and pasted it.

Each user is free to vote or not a post or a comment, no one forces him to do so, but for me, it is a rule of courtesy, that at least I get a response. In this sense, you are free to vote the content that pleases you or generates more profit, that's the routine.

I’m a newbie here but the friend who invited me to this platform made me know how bad it is when you are engaging with the help of the AI. That’s some fake engagements and it makes no single sense 

I actually do disagree with you on the whole image thing. I'm a sucky artist I will be the first to admit that. I can take a decent picture, and I feel like I am pretty creative when it comes to putting words together. Writing prompts to have images generated is a completely different art form though. I've tried it a couple of times and I can never quite get it right. Some might argue there is simply a formula to it that I haven't figured out yet, but as I said, I feel it is more of a skill, just like putting brush to canvas. 

That being said, I'm not a fan of AI generated text and AI comments completely defeat the purpose for me. It's a clear money grab plain and simple. If they actually cared about the content they would have written a comment themselves.

> People are using AI as a shortcut to get results, but they have forgotten the fundamental rule of life that we have all heard a thousand times.

There are people who love shortcuts. They want a better life, but they are not willing to face challenges. Just like using AI. They want to generate ideas and post them as if they're theirs. Proud and loud, yet dishonorable. It is better to be honest so we can get the support from others.

A wise man is saying and it was my professor in Child Adolescent that if you get your success on wrong way it is not a success but cheating, there is no such success in cheating.

Although AI has its advantages, its disadvantages as well are undeniable.

Lately, I've been seeing **AI integration** from platforms that could replace professional digital work in the future. I say that because it is not far from truth. And although the advancement to technology has brought upon us this drastic change in the world, more and more people are getting involved. However, it robs away the chance to deeply learn the value and knowledge of fundamentals needed to know what they're doing as individuals who wants to develop a career.

As I said from one of my comments about AI design platforms; *"There is a difference between someone who sees design and someone who knows design."*

Plagiarizing robots is lazy and dishonest. Claiming credit for AI-generated images because you wrote some text prompts is lazy and dishonest. I'm here to share personal experiences and challenge established ideas through dialogue. 

Why would I use AI to generate contents or comments? As AI become my brain or mind? I think that contents and comments should be one's opinion not deception.

Taking the human factor out of the ecuation is not what we want here, as I see Hive as a mean to create a connection of some sorts.

>AI-generated content is very low value, no matter what it says or depicts.

✅

>I find AI-generated content pathetic.

💯

> There is not another person on earth that could have created the same content I have, as each photo comes from my life, I make each edit, every experience that led to a story is mine, and every word I write has come from my mind, my thoughts, my hands.

That's always been my aim with my blog, which is why I blog, or else I wouldn't see the need to blog and I would invest my time doing other things.

I have to ~~bite my tongue~~ freeze my finger from typing what's on my mind where AI content is concerned. I also resent reading/voting all sourced photo blogs, because I connect the writing to the photo(s) and vice versa. 
Originality shows effort to me and merits being rewarded.

Man, I don't even trust AI assistance for answering verifiable questions since half the time they get even the simplest stuff wrong.

I agree. With the ever increasing use and reach of AI, I like Hive because they try to keep the posts organic. If I wanted to read AI created articles, I'll write a prompt of my own. But AI comments? Seriously? Are their brains rotting already to rely on AI for a few lines of comment? I know that if there are monetary gain to be had, people will always try to game it, and make it easier. I think they should do that in areas where they can earn more money, like the Stock market or Forex. 

I don't even know how to use AI of any kind, except for the answers that come up first if I pose a question in my browser. Those I usually view with skepticism and look further. So no problems with my comments, ever, on anyone's posts. Why even bother?! Vacuous activity, wasted time.
