Trying out the ChatGPT to ask it to write a post: How is it going to affect Hive's blogging activities?
ChatGPT is an AI tool for text generation and more. Check it out here: https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/
Using AI for text generation is nothing new. But the latest craze on ChatGPT seems to show signs of something powerful that is worth paying attention to.
Basically, how is it going to affect Hive's blogging activities? is a worthy question to ask.
For example, would we see more of these passing off as human-generated blog posts, earning rewards they don't quite deserve?
How can these behaviors be curbed? Do they need to be curbed?
I signed up for an account there and shamelessly asked it to write me a blog post for Leo Finance on the possibility of using ChatGPT for creating blog posts.
I know that is some kind of inception drama going on there with that request, bear with me.
This is how things turned out, with the initial niceties:
ChatGPT produced the following text, which I must say is quite informative:
Chatbots have become an increasingly popular tool for businesses and organizations looking to improve customer service and streamline communication. But did you know that chatbots can also be used for content creation?
Enter ChatGPT, a chatbot developed by OpenAI that uses advanced language processing techniques to generate human-like text. ChatGPT is able to understand and respond to prompts in a conversational manner, making it possible to use the chatbot as a writing assistant.
So how could ChatGPT be used to create blog posts? One way is to use the chatbot to brainstorm and generate ideas for blog post topics. Simply start a conversation with ChatGPT and provide some basic information about the subject matter you are interested in writing about. The chatbot can then suggest ideas for topics based on your input.
Once you have a topic in mind, ChatGPT can also assist with the actual writing of the blog post. Simply provide the chatbot with a prompt or outline of what you would like to cover in the post, and ChatGPT will generate relevant text based on its understanding of the topic.
Of course, it's important to note that ChatGPT is not a replacement for a human writer. The text generated by the chatbot will likely need to be edited and refined before it is ready for publication. However, ChatGPT can be a useful tool for generating ideas and getting a rough draft of a blog post started.
In conclusion, ChatGPT is a valuable resource for anyone looking to streamline their content creation process. Whether you're a blogger, business owner, or content marketer, ChatGPT can be a helpful writing assistant to generate ideas and create rough drafts of blog posts and other written content.
The tips about using this tool to get a rough draft and some ideas are useful indeed.
Overall, a great tool to have for written content creators on Hive.
Back to the question on how it is going to affect Hive's blogging activities?
First, I think there is definitely going to be an increase of posts generated by such services as it gets better.
Do we welcome it? No, if it does not contribute something of value to fellow Hivers. Yes, if it does. Simple as that. Post length and word production is not super critical thing in Hive. Value is. Hopefully, quality posts will get the rewards it deserves, always.
Second, relationship building would be key for success in Hive if this type of bot gets better. While more people can use bots to generate posts, few can use bots to generate replies to interact with others. This means that relationship building between Hivers who clearly know that none of the participants in their close network are bots or using bots to write posts becomes a natural line of defense.
So in fact, as such AI writing tools become more available, we could see people on Hive attempting to build better relations among themselves.
Conclusion
Based on these reflections, I am considering the following strategies moving forward.
- use ChatGPT tools to generate ideas for posts
- attempt to build better relationships with fellow Hivers by interacting with them through comments and upvoting of their posts.
What is great about Hive is that we can discuss what can be done to counter any possible threat!

ChatGPT isn't very good at writing articles. It can write them if you ask, but they come across as very generic sounding and are devoid of substance. You can use GPT 3 and it's latest Da Vinci algorithm to write articles, but you still get articles that aren't very good.
I think AI tools like these are good for generating ideas, but writing fully fledged articles, you'll always be able to tell because they sound so formal and robotic.
Having said all of that, I see so many garbage posts that are not even spell checked and lack any substance, "Why I think Hive is the best in the entire world!!" type things posted. Maybe ChatGPT will improve the quality of this place.
If people are using them to generate articles and then writing in their own original parts on top or rewriting existing parts, I think that's fine. At the end of the day, I'll always upvote high quality content regardless.

They don't always sound formal and robotic. You can tell an AI to sound like a certain writer, and it will write in their style.
I am waiting for when the AI can simulate my style, cause having a bot who can write like Edgar Allen Poe is cool, but kinda useless for me.

In my experience, the formality is around how it structures articles. If you're writing something academic, I can see the benefit. But, I tend to write in an informal style with hints of formal thrown in when I need to dive deep into something. But, the stuff I've tried generating sounds like a computer very much wrote it. I like the style emulation idea. One day, you'll see AI that can be trained on your emails and other writings to emulate your style.

I think it's good to build a general idea but it's not enough to write a more personal post. It just makes me wonder whether or not some people would consider that plagiarism or not.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The content itself is not plagiarized, but anything that you did not write yourself, that you claim you wrote yourself, is plagiarism.
So, having an AI writer generate a full text for you and then copying and pasting it is plagiarism, using an AI writer to generate post ideas, and write topic sentences that are then edited and flushed out is not plagiarism.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Generating ideas isn't and there needs to be an idea of how much is edited. If all you changed was a few words, I would still say that it's almost the same. It's a fine line between what people say is and isn't. So in a way, it's a tough topic and I don't use one currently.

I like this idea. With ChatGPT, what you know is becoming more irrelevant. This AI revolution brings in some complex problems that don't have a right or wrong solution.
Cool post, I wrote a similar one this morning.
I started using an AI writer to help me write marketing materials for my online business.
I found that it is not very useful if you don't know the material you are having the AI write for you in-depth.
It is kind of like how google translate was about a decade ago - it can be amazing, or it can sound like pure gibberish.
I feel like we will be able to tell when a post is AI generated at 100% but won't be able to tell when it is used "correctly" meaning to generate outlines, and highlight keywords and get some topic sentences started.

Yes, indeed, I agree with you!

Kind of blowing my mind.I just got an ad for AI bot that works with companies to lower your bills.

Wow! AI bots are everywhere!

We've been exploring ChatGPT in the Sloth.Buzz Discord Come join the discussion! There are so many possibilities with the bot and other AI bots. We'd love to connect more content creators, and maybe we'll start planning for the impending AI takeover! Let's Buzz those bots!

I might be paranoid. But I think some of the comments that I am receiving on posts are AI generated. It's like someone took over some old Steem accounts with decent reputation and now they are using those accounts to comment on lots of posts. Probably, I am too suspicious.
Hopefully there is a way to find out in the future. I don’t know how, maybe some day we can organize a verification online chat session of sorts to pick up the real responders. !PIZZA
