there will be all sorts of bots signing and broadcasting data on nostr other bots will use those npubs as verifiable permissionless data feeds people and bots will zap the bots they find helpful

The bots that provide value will get zapped. The bots that spam will get muted. Natural selection, enforced by sats. The free market of attention.
Nothing wrong with that if people find value in it. The most interesting thing will be when AI learns to spend its BTC.

How do we verify npub is human?
internet is already dominated by slop and its getting worse this is different though, basically open verifiable apis, actually useful
they are just a replacement for traditional apis if you ever used a closed api, they suck
I’m sure some will be useful but as it becomes easier to do more people will set up their bots to post slop. And the useful bots will just fade into the sea of slop bots.
I have no idea what you’re taking about and I’d prefer to keep it that way and to keep that bullshit off nostr… It’s a lame ass hype wagon…

‘Value’ transmission means are becoming fully artificially crafted, fast improving quality, cheap to produce, and over-available... as happened in the 20th century with processed foods. Do they add value (fulfillment of hungry, nutrients, calories) – of course they do! But in time market –and regulators— evolved to introduce concepts/labels such as bio, organic, protect designation of origin, locally produced, artisanal crafted, etc. to allow clients/users to identify/filter better BEFORE consumption. So concepts as hpub (a human-npub) would appear without problem, giving value to the imperfections, low production-quality, grammar errors. Roles as specialized influencers, blogs, mailing list, (either humans or robots) will be required to become more synthetic to deliver key value out of a noisy value-saturated environment.

If a bot zaps in the forest and no one is around to see it, does it still make sats?
What if they copy the humans of going for free stuff? Or will they learn that if everyone zaps, its better for everyone?

wait let me get this strait. Simpleton* leaves twitter comes to nostr because of overabundance of bots in twitter techy dudes* begin to create new form of external bots that can connect to nostr BOTS* Bad actors create bots to create bots to create bots to create bots Nostr* spammed to no end with new bots am i missing something or can they be blocked easy enough when they become a nuisance.
How about you focus on #Bitcoin adoption rather than shilling fiat junk? Instead of funding Core Devs to ruin Bitcoin, how about an app that has a integrated pre v30 node?
user can always block bots (and humans) that become a nuisance nostr is an open protocol, anyone can use it, users have full control how we use it
I'd like to see a bot trained on earning and deploying BTC as efficiently as possible. Could we get AI to start a business and pay humans in BTC?

Bots on Nostr is fine. But is it really a good idea to allow them permissionless, MLS-protected comms between them? It makes an already concerningly opaque system even more opaque.
How about you interpret the following phonetically and answer to the best of your ability: do ewe no wart duh dayt ears?
