Are there studies matching creator pay and post counts around an AI tool's launch?

Research question: Are there working papers that pair platform-level creator payout data with posting-volume data across a known AI-tool release date, and what are their pre- and post-period lengths?

The verified facts do not identify any working paper that pairs creator payout data with posting-volume data around an AI-tool release, so the question cannot be answered from them ¹. The only item provided is a Roblox 8-K filing reporting that nearly half of its Top 1,000 creators use Studio Assistant or Model Context Protocol (MCP) to shorten development timelines ¹. That item is company-reported adoption, not a working paper or a pre/post study with payout and posting-volume data ¹. The records therefore provide no pre- or post-period lengths ¹. The newest fact is dated 2026-04-30, about five months before the current date of October 2026 ¹.
