I don't use AI for writing my articles and I don't even know how. Even if I would know how I would still not use it because it's not useful, authentic, moral, and normal, all the more here on HIVE. I was primarily downvoted on posts on peace, health, and music (it seems those who downvoted me are not Paul McCartney fans and not very charitable either although they are very, very rich here on HIVE).
The reason why these sort of people downvote is because they can and because they want to show something to the world, specifically who they are, which is fine by me. I don't think they would leave a comment as to why they downvoted because they are far too important and far too rich to even consider replying to minnows here. They just downvote because they can and because they like this very, very much. Would they have such a well developed conscience and emotional intelligence as to why would they downvote on peaceful posts which were original, well written, and did not include any insults towards anyone? Of course, not. Because, as you say, downvoting happens, and, as in real life, it is the most economically powerful that will hit hard the poor people. Why? Because they can, because they don't care, and because they like it very, very much. That's what they live for, right? Just some thoughts...
