How Does Medium Identify AI Content?
So, for those of you who write on Medium, hopefully, you will be aware of their policy on AI content.
Surprisingly, they do allow AI-assisted stories, but they must be clearly identified as such.
However, it is not possible to earn money from their Partner Program using AI content, even if you identify it.
If found, your story will be removed from behind the paywall, and your account could be suspended.
However, what I found interesting, is that they do not use any kind of automated checker or platform to determine AI but rely on their human editors to spot it.
So, let's have a little experiment, shall we?
Pretend you are examining the following content, what are the obvious AI markers?

Hi Diane,
When I'm reviewing machine-translated material, I often change prepositions and add linking words. AI is also trained with translated material, and sometimes the basic structure of the other languages still shows in the translations.
I have to rewrite sentences with complex lists and phrases where more than two adjectives are used at a time. Adjective order is sometimes wrong and that makes sentences look funny.
Thanks, the post is inspiring, informative and a way forward for starters and, great ideas to take onboard for improvement and success in Wealthy Affiliate as an online business, great pillars as foundations for members as well, Valuable article to read as guideline too.
I learnt great ideas and will take in for my own good as well,

Interesting to hear that Medium still use actual humans to vet the content on the platform Diane, I still haven't gone there, but it is on my long to do list to do so at some point!
This doesn't strike me as AI content though.... with all of the emojis it seems similar to what I have seen you write after getting back from the pub after one too many!!
🤣👍🍷🍹🍻
Some really good points were raised, Diane. AI is a great tool when used as a guideline and can cut hours off the time it takes to write a new blog. But, and it's a big but, it can only be used to suggest ideas. The final product must come from the heart and sound genuine. Another word I constantly find in AI content is "resonate"...it's a surefire giveaway that a machine has produced the content.
