In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

After implementing this change to the KPP our rescue stream has dropped ~60% in revenue overnight on Kick. Starting on September 16th and for every stream going forward. Kick support claims it's now a 30 day average of the income of our streams but this doesn't make sense. That broadcast has had steadily increasing viewership over the last 60, 30, and 7 days. It's also a 24/7 stream and has the same number of hours every broadcast. A "30 day average" when viewership is only going up and hours streamed is the same does not explain a ~60% drop in KPP income. Other creators are also talking about similar declines so it's not just us. Kick needs to revert this new weighted average change. It's immediately impacted income in a negative way for creators and that income cannot be correctly calculated on our end. It makes the platform look dishonest overall and doesn't align with their stated creator first goals. @KICKEthan @StakeEddie @Svntvmvriv

Wanted to discuss KPP because we owe it to you to be transparent and clear on what's happened. We've had issues, backpaid, and amended how we calculate KPP. KICK exists for the creators and their communities, so always hold us accountable. More inside.
