Thank you for letting us know.
Building trust in the entire Hive ecosystem is a continuous process that is essential both at good and bad times.
I had an idea the other day, but I'm not sure whether it can be effective in practice.
The content that is uploaded to different Hive platforms every day is massive.
It is indexed by search engines and AI bots, I guess, isn't it?
AI bots use it to answer queries etc., essentially taking advantage of it without the Hive blockchain and its users receiving any benefit in return.
Recently, various platforms and applications have been developed, such as Copyright.sh, for example, to help creators license and monetize their content that is used by bots in one way or another.
Could the Hive content platforms make use of such a facility to monetize the content that is used by AI bots to compensate Hive writers, commenters, posters, and curators?
This could be in the form of an accumulated pool/fund that is fed with AI licensing fees.
These fees, or a percentage of them, could then be distributed/shared among the Hive creators and users who are involved in the creation of the content, that is the community, in fact.
That is the general idea, anyway.
