The day that became a nightmare due to the use of AI to comment on posts to the users in steem

Test of posts with AI worked.
And promoting my witness @xpilar.witness I did not see as anything wrong to do.
But what should have been done in addition was to give posts that AI commented an upvote to author.

Everything seemed fine with the AI, but it learns itself from the posts it comments on. And it also provided commentary in different languages.

This became an expensive lesson about using AI because eventually the comments looked like pure spam, but not all the comments. And many also thanked for the comment.

But unfortunately I discovered too late what was developing with the comments from AI which were perceived as Spam. I was out with the family and when I got home I saw the message from @steemchiller.

The bot (AI) was stopped,but there were already many comments sent out to authors via my account @xpilar.witness.

@steemchiller did a strong down vote on the comments + some others and my reputation went to minus -04 and that's the same as you being blacklisted.

@steemchiller and I entered into an agreement that if I deleted the comments he would withdraw his downvotes.

Comments who got replies cant be deleted but the bot is now deleting any comment that were not replied.

Sometimes things go wrong, that is, it didn't turn out the way we thought and we humans have different ways of reacting. And that's just the way it is, I can't do anything about how others react.

But I hope that those who appreciate me here on steem will still vote for my witness @xpilar.witness

I also want to thank @stef1 for her post on this matter
