Coach Tony announced it two days ago; there’s a new Boost in town. And yesterday, The Pub got its first boosted story!

Congrats to Ben Ulansey:

Why did Ben get the boost?

A catchy title mixing AI, sex, and an uber-famous book title could only attract the attention of Medium curators and readers!

But Ben wasn’t good only with the title; he also wrote an interesting article. Read it! Here’s a sneak peek that will catch your attention as it did with mine.

“The sudden emergence of AI porn is the third Pandora’s box I’ve seen opened this year, and it’s only February.”

It’s a good surprise

The Pub is a small publication (but getting bigger every day — thanks to all of you); it’s much appreciated to see that boosting isn’t limited to the big ones.

I don’t know how Medium found the story, as The Pub’s editors do not have any boosting power.

At the moment.

But, mark my words; one day, we will! And I can promise it will be before the planned end of Medium on September 13, 275760.

Will Ben make it to the Pub’s top 3?

It won’t be easy!

The current record holder is Philip S. Naudus, with more than 13,000 views!

The second place is comfortably occupied by Loudt Darrow, with more than 8,000 views of ripped off content.

And third place goes to Napoleon with 5,000+ views. Wanna share a coke to celebrate?

Ben is already in fourth place with 2k+ views and counting. It’s only the beginning of his boost! Best of luck, Ben!

Who will get the next boost?

Who knows, it might be you. Write for us, and you’ll see!

Be warned, though, Captain Zatanna is quite naughty.
