AI has taken over influencers’ jobs consequently killing the entertainment and influencer industries. This can no longer be tolerated. Not only this so, but the authenticity and originality of AI videos are is nonexistent whatsoever.
AI is being used to create fake personas online for many different purposes. It has reached the point of replacing some humans in the influencer industry. It could even eventually replace most of the industry due to the minimal lack of effort required to create AI videos, especially takes in comparison to creating non-artificial content. Eventually, most content could be completely fabricated using AI. Slop or generated content destroys the purpose of entertainment as it uses minimal effort to maximize views and popularity.
In the past, AI was used to be only to find sources or aided in minor tasks things (Best to avoid using informal and broad language like “things.” Use thesaurus.com to help you find better/stronger alternatives), such as script editing or generating ideas. Now, it has evolved slowly to the point it can create fake videos of people who might not even exist. This is used as a mask for the person behind the screen to gain views and content. Instead of taking the time and effort to create a real truly immersive video, they sit on an AI video-making website typing prompt after prompt to generate videos and gaining popularity that way. The problem with this is that often times the more of this kind type of video exists, the less original the next one becomes. The whole purpose of the influencer and entertainment industry is so each for videos is to be original and packed with effort, making the short videos seem ever more interesting. Instead, AI influencers and AI videos are skipping the work process and reaping the rewards. Overall, this phenomenon makes the ‘creation’ of the content lose its meaning. and makes the For this reason, videos seem so become uncanny and unnatural.
People may argue that sometimes AI influencers can do what real influencers cannot, and that there is no way AI influencers can completely take over such a massive industry. They are right. AI can do what humans cannot. This is also why AI is the perfect tool. Instead of creating an entire video using AI, people can use AI as a tool to do what they cannot on their budget. As for AI influencers taking over the industry, let me just say one word, effort. If an AI video blows up, and sweeping the floor with many other projects that took much more human effort way longer to make, then this is going to cause others to give up and resort to AI. The more potential creators observe others profitting in lying back and relaxing while AI does all the work, the more they will be intrigued to join. If you could merely type in prompt after prompt instead of having to set up and execute a video just to get roughly the same views and likes as an AI video would, the more attracting AI would seem. By this time it’s too late, everyone is using AI.
A thing you, the people reading this, can do is to ignore these AI videos and not give it more attention than it has already gained. You could can also block or tell the platform you are not interested in this kind of content, further reducing AI video popularity. The rise of AI videos would proudly mean the death of creativity and authenticity in real content.
