You can stop pretending to care about compensation. Earnings are down and it seems the only way to earn money now is to be in the popular club and boost the stories of all your friends.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way...

I don't think I'd hang around if Medium was going to let AI train on all the stories without trying to block it. Ten percent is no incentive seeing as I make pennies on the good, personal stories Medium has claimed to favor.

I don't support writers on here if I know they use AI for any part of their process. I don't want my stories stolen, and I won't read people who are happy to use the stolen work of others.

I'm happy to see you claim to care about credit and consent, but you sure don't care about compensation so I am skeptical as to whether you really care about the other two either.
