is there anything they can realistically do?

  Maybe this is just a Band-Aid, but Medium has a "boost" mechanism. I'm not sure of the exact machinations, but the times that my posts have been boosted, it's always been by a publication on Medium where a human editor has read my content and 1) asked that I submit to their publication and 2) submitted to Medium for boosting. Seems like this type of filter -- as long as they actually keep humans in the loop -- can potentially work to keep high quality content more visible.

  They could use an algo to rate for AI slopness and de-rank that in search and the like.
