Personally I don't have a problem with AI being used to create posts. Autotune, Photoshop, spell checkers, translators and now AI content generators - these are just tools, getting more sophisticated by the day, but still just tools. As long as the tool is not set on autospam, when there is a human behind it, when the content is good enough for me to spend my time consuming it, I'll upvote it. And yes, I realize I might actually vote for something that is completely computer made - I don't care. Either I like it or I don't, where it came from does not matter. In the long run AI will be human, preferably as an extension of actual humans (go, go, Neuralink!) instead of cold alien superconscience. But we might one day see computers setting their personal accounts on Hive, indistinguishable from biological people :o)

You may care that you're competing with AI - hopelessly - for control of Hive, and unless people gain the rewards, Hive will simply become an AI rewards farm. This microcosm of society will either enable people to prosper, or bots will take it from us.
The salient issue is not where content originates, but where value accumulates.
I can only read and vote for content, not the effort. The very nature of progress is to make things better, faster, cheaper and with less effort. If AI made content that is worth my time, so be it.
Mechanisms should not be able to secure votes, on Hive, or in any social institution. Votes and society that uses them are for people, not toasters.
