If the AI rewards people who publish every day by putting their content in front of more people, then the logical conclusion is that Medium will be flooded by these "content creators." It will be up to readers and writers to curate our home pages to filter out the noise of the constant flood of thousands of people hitting publish every day. That will mean that to block the noise I will need to set my default to "following" instead of "recommended." Except I often like what is recommended and I might have FOMO if I only see who I follow. Thanks again for your essay. I'm still thinking about it.
