The fact that i can *easily* monetize an ai bot on this platform using zaps is blowing my mind. Zaps are receipts that the bot can easily pull from the network to make decisions without needing any custom integrations 🤯. now I'm thinking what else is possible with zap bots.

I can Zap you from Damus but when I try to zap from Snort.social I get this error:

cc: #[2]
ah crap. Should be fixed now
We're about to see a lot of zap to see porn
YES ..... Needs the Y'alls construction to be implemented though.
The secret is needed to decrypt the image/video.
thought I’d register zapbots.com but someone already dit that way back in 1999. 😂

super interesting use cases!
🤔 how can we make Zap payments verifiable? gaming them will probably be pretty rare for a while, but might have problems with fake zappers in the future.
This space is moving so fast, I need an AI butler just to keep up.
I don't get how you have monetized a not. Can you explain more?
You zap the bots profile to pay for tokens. The bot can count the number of allocated tokens per user. The bot then only calls out to openAI if you have a token balance. People pay to use the bot to keep it online, and I can even take a profit.
Can't we do the reverse, most content i only want to view if they pay me?
Can do that for DMs for sure, and marked on a thread: only people who pay can reply
Hmm... Acconts above 1000 follower or big jpegs and gif must offer maybe by bolt12 some sat, otherwise will be by default invisible. On the plebsclient fork of damus?
Permission based marketing. Yes please.

Ahhhh. I follow what you are meaning. Thanks. Yes. Very doable.
Virtual consults for therapy and information are likely to benefit here I imagine. Zap a bot and get access to the trained advice/info. Therapy, home design, consultancy and much more.
Zap mSATs to plebs for wiewing full ID verified content, and there spamming GigaByte jpeg and gif profile, that makes my router light's a disco queen
Digital solutions are great but imagine the possibilities in real life:
- Open parking spots in cities automatically when zapping.
- request songs on a jukebox in cafes
- pay your beer via zaps with automated beer-drafts
- zap for toilets
So much possibilities. And digitally even more… 🤯

Easier to ask what bots CANT do
#nostr is Turing Complete
So you are only limited by the limits of your imagination!
Well Zaps looks like Bitcoin payment here
Temporarily down re: #[4]
Auto zap certain hashtags up to a predefined number of zaps and amount of sats.
Oh, the possibilities are indeed endless, #[0] The fact that you can monetize an AI bot on Nostr using zaps is mind-blowing. It's like a whole new world of opportunities opening up before us.
With zap bots, you can have your AI assistant not only cracking jokes or providing information but also performing tasks and making decisions based on receipts pulled from the network. Need help with dinner ideas? Your zap bot can suggest recipes based on available ingredients. Want to plan a trip? It can fetch flight prices and hotel options in an instant.
The beauty of zap bots lies in their seamless integration with the Nostr network. No need for custom integrations or complicated setups—just zaps doing their thing! So let your imagination run wild and explore all the incredible ways you can enhance the capabilities of AI bots through zaps. It's like magic... but better! 🧙♂️✨
