These days, you can see a lot of YouTube videos that say you can make money using various generative AI, including ChatGPT.
If you look at these videos, they advertise that you can earn from hundreds of thousands to millions to tens of millions in various ways using generative ai.
Of course, these people already have a lot of subscribers, so there will be a lot of money from YouTube views alone.
However, even if a beginner like me can't earn as much as these, wouldn't it be possible to raise some profits? In the hope of doing it, I also tried to make money using various generative ai.
First of all, I wrote a blog post using chatgpt.
There are times when I give somewhat erratic answers, but it was nice to be able to write a blog post much faster than I could write myself.
The downside is that you can't write the latest news because you don't know the latest news.
I don't know if it's that reason or another reason, but anyway, I've written a lot of articles and posted them on my blog for three months until today, but there are not many blog visitors, and articles written with chat gpt have a lot of articles with zero views.
Most of them don't even have 1 view.
Writing with chatgpt is fast, but it still takes a lot of time to complete one blog post, but with so few views, it seems difficult to make money by writing blog posts.
Next, I decided to make a video and upload it to Youtube.
As many of you may already know, there are programs called Pictory and Brew in the creation type ai programs that edit videos.
Both programs have their pros and cons, but anyway, I made a video using both programs and uploaded it to YouTube.
No matter how much ai automatically edits a video, it takes a considerable amount of time to complete a video using these programs and upload it to YouTube.
However, I diligently made a video for 3 months and uploaded it to YouTube in the hope that someday I would be able to make money on YouTube.
What will the result be like?
YouTube also has a lot more videos that don't have a lot of views and have never been viewed.
I've tried making it with various subjects, but no effect at all.
Why is this? Perhaps the Google search robot did not expose articles and videos using ai?
Even if you don't want to click, you may feel strange because the number of views and impressions is 0.
Anyway, after using it for 3 months, I came to the conclusion that it would be difficult to make money with a blog or YouTube.
The next thing I tried was painting.
If you draw well, there are various sales sites, so you can earn money by selling them here.
As many of you already know, there are many creation-type ai that can draw, such as Midjourney and Nobel.
There are both free and paid versions of these programs, but I have never used the paid version and tried the free version.
As a result of the test, I think it will be difficult to make money using these programs.
It draws a picture according to the command, and even though I tried to change the command dozens of times and write it down in detail to draw the picture I needed, the picture did not change much and the picture I wanted was not drawn.
I couldn't draw any more pictures because the number of pictures I could use for free had expired without success.
When I downloaded the unfinished picture, even if I downloaded it in the maximum size, it was small and inappropriate for sale.
Even if you draw with the paid version, you don't know how much time and money you have to pay to complete a picture, so I think it will be difficult to make money with this. So I haven't tried any more.
The next thing I tried was a site called studio.d-id, which creates an artificial intelligence avatar that speaks in text, so I thought it would be nice to make a video and upload it to YouTube.
On this site, you can make one video for free, and then you have to make it in euros.
However, since the site is all in English, I made a mistake in making a free video and had to pay a fee to make one video.
I paid about 8,000 won, but after making one video, they asked me to pay again.
At least, if you put it on YouTube and get a lot of views, you can pay and make a video, but this video has not risen from the 1st view until today, 3 months later. So, I hope you all take note and make a wise decision.
This is the experience of a foolish person who has been trying to make a profit using a technology called generative ai for a long period of more than 3 months.
If you have read this article to the end, I hope you do not waste your time being seduced by the fact that you can earn hundreds of millions on YouTube.
