That's brilliant. I have used Fiver.com a couple of times to get things layouts or graphics done quickly, but I hadn't even considered outsourcing my own writing. I like my own voice. I wouldn't want to dilute that, but I can see where it's a solid business proposition.
Coincidentally, yesterday I wrote a piece incorporating an article on the "behavioral immune system" you mention.

How will you read our articles after your eyes go? Do you have a text-to-speech program, or is that something to request from the Steemit developers?
And how will you post your own stuff? I consider it valuable and want to see it continue.
@plotbot2015
I like my own voice too. I would never hire out for that.
Maybe I'll hire some folks on fiver to record themselves reading for me though! :)
I dunno man, I'm just coming to terms with it.
@williambanks plz check my latest post and see how transformative some bots are. They are truly empowering.
Now, for a moment think that someone profited handsomely. Should this be a problem at all ?
That was really cool!
Yeah I'm not seeing a problem except the content wasn't bot generated and stellabelle was trying to call someone else a bot too.
Great post @williambanks.
Perhaps there's still hope for your eyes to recover. Found this at allaboutvision.com
Thank you for bringing that to my attention. Couldn't hurt to give that a try!
I really appreciate it!
I would have to do that for any translations. The one time I did that with a graduate student, though, it was painful. Her English, although far far superior to my zero-level Arabic, wasn't far enough along to deal with the large amount of slang and idiom in my writing at the time.
