The problem is not how to to give a proper or resonable compensation for some specific work.
that is the difference between piece work and salary, both are compensation. Basically pay for knowledge or production. Other ways to get them to produce are awards, recognition, satisfaction, perks, etc.

the problem with paying them as creators only is that somebody has to have the money to pay them. Advertisers, billionaires, etc. or someone directly profiting from their output.
