RE: Talk Channel: "Comment or ask a question"/ Comente o pregunte (week 263) in the WOX
About AI: do you check if what AI tells you is the truth? AI itself says it is in a developing stage and does make MISTAKES.
I strongly feel that with whatever AI comes up is seen as the truth and nothing else than the truth.
Next to that we also deal with the fact that AI is programmed by "the white man" with the "western ideas" which can be clearly found back in the way it generates pictures and answers given.
Onboarding new people is pointless if you have to tell them there is no gain and they should bring money and not drain the platform. Are you honest enough to tell that to those you invite? Since the platform's foundation is investments and not writing. The posting part is the extra and what we see is not something to brag about.
If money is the main reason to join this is not the place to be. If you like to read real good stuff it's like searching for a needle in a haystack. If you like to chat.... well, an idea is to join comment contests or simply jump into a chat Steemians have.
Let's not have the illusion it is easy to make friends and everyone will welcome the newcomer (how many did you welcome and support?) because the opposite is true and even if we do we will lose our interest if there's no click or the newcomer's only goal is to beg for upvotes.
No matter how you put it there are clubs, cliques where you are not welcome. This counts for me as well No way I am welcome, no way my country is noticed, no way Europe is. Everyone stays in his own comfort zone and for many this is posting in their blog or in a community where no one notices them or will ever comment.
I am not sure why you waited to be verified and not simply went posting elsewhere. I agree with you that friends go first since I noticed the same and it's an illusion to believe that will change unless you ask your family to join which might get you in trouble as well because they will say you started a club and let no one in.
Those apps you name like Binance I can not use and there are more people who don't have access to hem due to the restrictions of their country or new laws introduced in the EU since January 2025. I find it a bit selfish to refer to these "apps" because it works for you. How about the rest of the world? Don't you believe that more would join if it wouldn't be made so extremely difficult to invest in steem/this platform? Why not build something in like we had in the past?
It can be called aid blah blah if you buy steem or sbd with your credit/debit card. Is it really that difficult if someone with easy access starts an aidfund for Steemians shut out to invest in the platform?
Great you took the time to leave this comment.
@aneukpineung78 give me your bankaccount and buy steem for me and transfer it to my wallet please. You said with you it's no problem to buy steem.
@mamamasha do you like some AI app/tool to make exchange or buying steem/SBD easier?
The accuracy of AI exceeds 80%. If it helps me save time and as we know, For some, AI is considered unreliable, but from my experience, those claims are often false. I have more than four years of experience in development. I worked on projects before the advent of AI and after its emergence.
Before AI, retrieving information required hours of research and reading documentation. Now, with AI, we can simply ask, saving countless hours. For example, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy mentioned that Generative AI saved the company $260 million and approximately 4,500 developer years. Source: CNBC-TV18.
In my field, this is a game-changer. However, I notice that some of the newer developers rely heavily on AI. They gain information quickly without thoroughly understanding the code. Sometimes I come across a piece of code and ask a colleague about it, only to find out they used AI and have no idea how it works.
Regarding the open world of platforms like Steemit, it allows everyone—regardless of wealth or background—to contribute their ideas. It’s an open and collaborative space where anyone can help.
On the topic of apps and financial accessibility, different countries face unique challenges. In my country, we don’t have international cards like Visa or MasterCard. However, we’ve adapted to this situation. I have friends in Europe who frequently use Binance and other exchanges. For those of us facing such limitations, would you suggest peer-to-peer (P2P) marketplaces?
may I have your private contact? I would like to ask you something.

So AI is fed with content which is 100% true? How come what I write is labelled as AI generated?
I don't easily believe everyting and it's important to investigate yourself and keep options open which is part of trying to be objective and open minded. Next to that if it comes to science and "investigations" the results are in most cases as expected (the one who pays wants the outcome he prefers plus questions are based on the result one likes to see)
Anyway it's good to hear you are confident and you at your work see the same as I see in life (at schools and so on). It's a quick way to gather info, no need to check since AI is right (80% is enough reason to believe everything? I guess judges work the same).
Europe is not one big country where we all have the same rules also the EU in in the continent Europe but not all European countries are part of the EU. Next to that there is a huge difference between culture, lifestyle, -standard and laws and what is possible with others isn't with us. So Binance is a big NO and I hope Bitvavo will add Steem and SBD again. If not I will find another way or stop investing.
In the Netherlands the credit card was never a big success. Way to expensive and next to that most shops don't want you to pay with it. I only remember that in some restaurants it was possible to pay with a credit card but that was over 30 years ago.
Today al debit cards are replaced by cards with only a number and you can pay online with it if you have enough on your bank account like people can do with a credit card. Your name is no longer printed on the card. It's also possible to have a bank account without visual card but that means you have to pay online or you can use your phone. I don't like to use my phone since to it's my pc and I don't like to drag it around if I go out.
We have also restrictions if it comes to cash withdrawals they want us to use the digital euro and take that wallet so they can control on what you spend it (everything you buy online is registrated and comes with a CO2 footprint label/number). Some countries are test countries and the Netherlands is one of them.
Bill Gates told what would happen (always interesting how he seems to know everything) so let's see what 2025 brings.
P2P could work if not joining hands with a scammer.

AI does not create anything, it only searches for content related to what is required, it generates a logical combination of existing information to provide a result, generally, it can be considered as a paraphrasing of information. AI detectors can generate content review, and search for phrases throughout the Internet, and bring with them similar results, the more phrases are repeated with other sources, the higher the percentage by AI.

We all know that a lot of nonsense is posted on the internet which means...
Next to that the poetry is always the same and i doubt there is that much poetry with the same phrases available and way more different poetry than those cheap rhymes.
If we all start feeding Chatgot what will this mean for us? That we all are plagiarists (which Chatgpt is) or everyone is labelled for using AI?
This might be great for a contests to test.
I think AI always leaves evidence, but we would need intuition to detect it. Everyone has a way of writing, and that gives it a naturalness that AI cannot achieve.
No, AI is not 100% accurate, but it is pretty close. Can you explain how I can verify the information? Should I rely on books, the internet, or teachers? Sometimes AI explains things better than teachers, lol.
I read about "Bitvavo", an exchange similar to Binance but based in the Netherlands. I didn't quite understand what kind of app you are proposing. From what I read, it seems that you can only invest in currencies supported by Bitvavo.
For peer-to-peer (P2P) applications, it is shoulf just that the owner of the application is trustworthy and not a scammer ( it's not hard to realse this app).
AI can only explain if it is programmed that way and fed with info someone wrote down or said meaning it's still a human doing the explaining. I totally agree with you that the average teacher isn't able to explain or think out of the box and creative enough to find different ways to pass information. It's a struggle of decades I have with teachers claiming children/people are not able to learn. Strangely enough, they are after I taught them for a few weeks and turn out to be high intelligent (unlike the teacher).
Bitvavo is Dutch and I was one of the first joining them. Next they expanded to Belgium, Germany perhaps a few other countries. As I understand they kicked Germany out (most likely a few different laws) and so did they with Steem from July 1st, 2024. They do have a Steem account so af few days ago I asked them to add Steem and SBD (I asked someone else to do the same). Back then they added it because I asked and I don't know why they care if the asset is bought by many or a few if they brag about adding over 300 lately. I doubt everyone with a Bitvavo account will invest in all the assets.
The letter I received back from them was more like the automatically send one, answers I had weren't answered.
If it comes to P2P it sounds like our "Marktplaats" although it's bought by ebay but you can still chose not to share a part of the income with them if you don't want to use their "secure payment" option (if you don't receive anything they will not pay the seller). Any idea how those middle man worked back then? Can be mainly on trust or for friends/relatives.
I received a next tip orinoco which I found this morning as well and is still used orinoco.io
I have to translate it so it's on my list.
I think the middleman earns trust through his reputation. Haha, I don’t think I would trust friends or relatives if their reputation is bad. As Publilius Syrus said, 'A good reputation is more valuable than money.'
It is a risk indeed and I never took it. I know who did and received the name years ago and refused. What also is important is that I should be able to do it myself.
It makes me feel uncomfirtable to deoend on someone who can be too busy, ill, absent or die which would make me stand empty handed plus I have the stress of figuring it out myself without help.
It depends on what you will exchange for it. Sometimes, it's worth trying and taking the risk to trust the other side.
I have an idea for a game that I want to develop and use in a contest on Steemit. What advice do you have for me, not regarding coding, but on how to manage the contest and promote it to attract many people?
I like the idea of you creating a game - I wrote a game for Steemit once but my code was shit so it became unmaintainable and I gave up 🙂
You don't have to share your idea if you don't want to - is the game "purely" on Steemit or will you host it elsewhere and leverage Steem's blockchain technology?
In the short term, I want to construct a Telegram game bot with a word-guessing logic that users would find interesting and engaging. The top three winners will get incentives. Additionally, I aim to conduct a contest based on the same word that was predicted as the topic.
In the long term, I’m thinking about building a mobile app for Android and iOS that is blockchain-based. The idea is currently being explored, notably around ways to combine blockchain with the gameplay, such as prizes and NFTs. The app will offer several daily games, such as:
Word guessing
Mystery deduction game
Guess the nation based on its form
or , I may creating card games, comparable to other primary blockchain-based games.
It is acceptable, logical and understandable to use AI to complement information or improve a working method, but what is wrong is to use AI to generate content on any topic to try to monetize, as is the case with the platform. Like everything, opportunists vaguely take advantage of technological advances, and it is something we cannot avoid.
I understand that ,i think there should be strict rules about this, not just for new users but also for old ones. I've noticed that sometimes, even users with a high reputation use ai in their blogs, in teaching, also to provide feedback, which is disappointing
It is important that you report cases with signs of AI that you find, we must create a culture that AI is a complement (as advice), and not a direct tool for creating content on Steemit.
Can I ask how to report this? As I indicated, when I submit my contributions to the programming challenge classes, I get comments. However, when I read it, I believe that the instructor doesn't observe my photos and simply analyzes my words. When I utilized AI detection on his comments, it proved that his replies were authored by AI. I examined several of his postings with AI detection, and all of them were labeled as AI-generated, including the challenge posts.
Which case are you referring to?
If there is any disagreement in the review of your entries, you must let the person in charge of the contest know.
I let him know, but he didn't respond to me, so I decided not to participate these lessons again.
