Medium is banning AI-generated content from its paid Partner program, notifying users that the new policy goes into effect on May 1, 2024.
Stories entirely generated using AI will be taken off paywalls and might even result in users getting kicked out of the monetization program.
Medium stresses that it is for human storytelling and doesn't want fully AI-generated stories on its platform.
Medium clarified that it understands AI can help make some writing clearer or assist those writing in a second language, but writing content purely through AI is no longer allowed.
Medium already had language in its guidelines stating that fully AI-generated stories are restricted from distribution beyond the writer's personal network on Medium.
According to the guidelines, Medium allows the responsible use of AI-assistive technology but with strict requirements for transparency.
Any story using AI help must clearly mention this within the first two paragraphs.
This rule extends to AI-generated images, which must be properly labeled and sourced.
While Medium users can still post AI-generated stories on their personal blogs, but are not shared widely across Medium's network.
With the banning of AI-generated content from the Paid Partner program, Medium has further cracked down on distributing this type of content.
This helps Medium understand what you prefer and limits the reach of fully AI-generated content.
