With the rise of artificial intelligence, it is a scary time to be a writer on this planet. Think about it for a second. An AI app could summarize a sports game in a matter of seconds. Why would news organizations ever pay for writers again?

There is a difference in the content created by artificial intelligence and that developed by writers and editors. Readers can sense it right away. Good do you know?

  • A bland tone
  • A lack of style
  • Impersonal writing
  • No irony or wit
  • Missing the human touch

New Incentives

Medium wants to make sure the writers in the platform create meaningful content that is unique, special, distinct and worthwhile.

We don’t need average content any more, not on Medium or any other news publication or media platform. The world needs great reporting with a human angle, written by writers who care about their work and who put their own personality into the content.

Medium us now newly focused on rewarding:

  • Originality in content
