Intro
We often talk about how great AI Tools are at simplifying our work. Sometimes, we use chatbots to write an email or quickly make an Excel spreadsheet. But all of these are more like supporting features rather than ideas based on and realized by AI. So, what if you build all the processes around a few tools and then turn them into viral and monetizable content for TikTok?
Today, I'm proposing that you proceed in two steps. First, we'll look at a few case studies of how content creators create monetizable content using AI and decompose their business. Then, we'll pick the right tools and try replicating the creators' journey by handing the reins to neural networks.
In the end, we'll look at the result and offer a full list of instruments that can be used to create such content.

How Much Can You Make With Viral Content?
We need to look at case studies to understand how we should proceed. Since not all creators are ready to start a blogging career immediately, I suggest looking at a few channels that make faceless content using AI. That would be the "selectyourchoice", Chapter_sixty and Bestfoodsecrets.
As you can see, even with minimal activity, such channels is still generating traffic and so creators are still making money. Provided that these videos gain 10-15 million views (which is no limit at all), these AI content bring the creators from $1,500 to $3,000 every month.
Let's look at our cases.

AI Content With Interactive Questions
We have already mentioned creating videos in this format in one of our previous newsletters, but this time, let's dwell on this topic in more detail.
This is a popular category on TikTok (which is certainly good for our plans). The authors of these videos follow the same pattern. They ask several questions, from relatively simple and even silly to real dilemmas, and then show the ratio of votes in favor of this answer.
I'd call this content a pretty good way to pass the time. It's unlikely you'll learn anything, but you'll realize how popular your opinion is and be able to pick up a topic to discuss with your friends.
But what about making money from this content?
How creators make up to $200K using AI Voices? Read this newsletter:
Earnings
Popular creators participating in the Creator Fund program earn between $0.02 and $0.04 per 1,000 views. Considering that some of these videos get 30 million or more views, we can conclude that one viral video earns creators between $600 and $1200. Sounds pretty good for a video that can be created within an hour, right?
But of course, you should realize that every video in this type of content doesn't collect millions of views, and a lot depends on the platform's algorithms. Nevertheless, such videos can be a good source of additional income without serious labor costs.

From 0 to 50k followers in 20 days with AI-Generated Images
In our second case study, I propose to look at an unusual creator, Chapter_Sixty. This author chose a popular category for his AI content but figured out how to diversify and make it unique. ChapterSixty uses MidJourney and other image generators to show countries as monsters and superheroes.
And it works. He has several videos with over 10M views and many less popular videos with a steady number of views. But more importantly, his idea allowed him to gain 50K subscribers from scratch in less than a month. This is an impressive result for a channel with an author who has no name and no investment in the promotion.
These videos often provoke subscribers to argue about how the country should really look like in the form of a monster or simply write: "This is exactly how I imagined it!". Of use: with this kind of content, you can evaluate how far image generation has come.
Combination of Idea and Non-standard AI for Viral Content
As for the third case study, Bestfoodsecrets has managed to occupy an interesting niche using artificial intelligence. The creator uses AI to generate people and then brings them to life using a platform like D-ID. The output is slightly creepy characters that act as many faces for this channel.
The content itself, meanwhile, is centered around food. Bestfoodsecrets shows how marketers trick us with food advertising, share interesting facts about different dishes, and show unusual recipes. As you can prove, since this creator is also a part of our list, his idea worked.
Although his channel collects fewer views than the creators from the previous cases (but we are still talking about regular millions), this channel is extremely stable. He constantly maintains positions with hundreds of thousands of likes and views.

And here we are. I suggest not repeating past case studies precisely but being inspired by them. We'll split the work into generating ideas and editing the video with AI voice.
Along the way, I'll share what tools I use myself, offer alternatives that may also be useful, and give you additional tools that are rarely used even by popular creators.
