Is Steemit still too young for BOTs?
Is Steemit still too young for BOTs?
From a minnow's view Steemit is a great place to connect with fellow creative personalities.
I think from the limited knowledge I have bots are cool and can do much of the background work.
When I look for whales to connect with many times I get no replies or those standard replies you know are from a bot.
I also learned recently that people are creating content producing bots like the cool article I resteemed. That kind of bot can be a great tool.
At what time does the line get crossed where it becomes just bots interacting with other bots?
Will we lose the community feeling that Steemit has been billed as?
We all know the Steem Dollars are not there in the amounts that many promoted it to be.
I am finding that I like to spend more time interacting on the discords I am members of than on the Steemit platform. That community feeling is alive and well there.
So let's see if I can prove my point that I will get more feedback on the discords than on this post
I will promote it on discord get some bots to upvote it and let's see how many live people will see it and like to comment.
What do you think?
Thanks Manny. https://discord.gg/EQYxZZ3
It's the human that make the connection. Without human interaction, Steemit would not be interesting. I found our article link on Discord channel. You brought up some good points here. Thank you @davidwardlow for sharing this!
You are so right. Thanks checking your posts. Will follow and upvote.
Great article & a good debate on this one, a lot of hard work goes into creating, coding etc a bot. Someone really needs to be good at programming for that,however, bots do kill the human touch & feel to it.... Good post buddy
Thanks man

Bots should be utilized only as a helping hand for difficult tasks which are awfully time consuming.
Very true
I can see your point. I was just thinking of that earlier. It gets to be overwhelming at times, with all the discords. :/ But I'm thankful for them too. Hopefully you'll get the feedback you're wanting! Good luck friend.
Thanks liked you positive challenge post following you now as well

I am being convinced to switch away from using bots, and starting to think that might be the right thing to do. The catch 22 though, is that in order for everyone to get the most from this platform and grow their accounts without bot use, it requires being in a circle of users that actually read, upvote, and comment on other people's work. What I've noticed from my own feed is that once a user grows to a certain level: they stop interacting with their followers except on their own posts. They obviously grew to that level with support from the community, but then drop the ball in "giving back." Enter the bidbot.
Great observation. So true.
Bot and automation in general is going to change out world a lot soon. They can't paint and write at low levels now. It won't be long before they can do it at high levels. But steemit is about more than just great content so I think people will stick around.
I hope so
It happens already and doesn't really matter.
The floor traders of stock and commodities exchanges have almost entirely been replaced by algorithms that make the same decisions in milliseconds and with far less hypertension.
But without human desires every market trade would still be meaningless.
Who takes the place of traders on the floor?
Media outlets—distributing the human interactions parallel to the trades.
How do you keep that human interaction and still get the most out of bots?
