Can I run a YouTube channel entirely with AI video? Yes — faceless niches (history, finance, sleep music) thrive on AI-generated visuals.
Are AI ads allowed on Meta and Google? Yes. Both now encourage AI-native creative through Advantage+ and Performance Max.
What's the fastest ROI tool? Opus Clip — one long video generates 10 shorts in 10 minutes.
Sora vs Runway — which to use? Sora for cinematic scenes; Runway for speed and iteration.
Does AI video look real now? For most commercial use cases, yes. Long cinematic work still needs polish.
How do I avoid deepfake concerns? Don't clone real faces without consent. Use stock models or AI-native characters.
AI video has collapsed the cost curve. Solo marketers now produce what agencies billed $50K for in 2022. Pick Runway + Opus Clip and ship weekly.
