Posting that text into Hive for rewards though, is plagiarism, right?
Absolutely no.
I wrote some of the lines it used ;D
So what? You think you are the original source of your thoughts, think again? Most people would disagree.
Some people don't have jobs to come from - they just watch TV.
These people will use the bottom line of the tech, the same as people use a calculator to calculate 212x13.
Your points are as weak as they can be. I'm not saying that to belittle you or anything it just seems that you didn't give it as much thought as you could. It just sounds like your emotions cloud your judgment here. Like your skill aren't as unique as you would want. The reality is that most of the writing skills are going to get replaced as much as people doing manual calculations were replaced when the first electronic calculators were replacing humans (we are talking about hundreds of thousands here) and you don't like it. But that doesn't matter. It is happening, and we need to prepare instead of arguing. These half baked arguments are just waste of our time.
I just want to add.
Something you don't want to get rewarded doesn't have to be plagiarism. If you don't see the effort you shouldn't vote or should even downvote, right? Although we can all see posts (not too many but still) on the hot page that are low effort yet these rules aren't applied to them. So I doubt AI content will get a different treatment depending on the user posting it.
