Welcome to “The AI Journey,” a captivating series where I dive into innovative marketing strategies and tools so you can decide what’s worth your time. Join me, as I unravel my experiment of creating a YouTube channel solely using AI.
I recently encountered a viral video from the talented Jensen Tung, part of the HubSpot Creator Network. In this intriguing video, Jensen created a YouTube channel using only AI. Feeling curious, I embarked on my own adventure to see if I could do the same and share the journey with you.
Continue reading to explore the fascinating world of launching a YouTube channel through AI resources. Let’s begin!
Identify Your YouTube Niche with AI
Choosing the right niche is the first step in any content creation journey. Just like Jensen, I turned to ChatGPT to get some fresh ideas for my channel. After prompting it for 100 YouTube niches, the topic of blogging tips naturally stood out to me.
Designing Your YouTube Brand with AI
Once the niche was decided, it was time to establish the YouTube branding. Using generative AI, I brainstormed various elements like the channel’s name and logo. I instructed ChatGPT to come up with 50 gender-neutral names, eventually selecting “Blake” because of its appealing alliteration with “blogging.”
Combining the niche and name, ChatGPT generated several channel names, and ultimately “BlogMaster Blake” caught my attention for its quirkiness and charm.
For an engaging channel bio, I commanded ChatGPT to generate a captivating story about “Blake,” a crafty AI with a blogging passion. This tale, filled with a rich backstory, truly enhanced the brand’s appeal.
Visually portraying BlogMaster Blake required artistry. So, I relied on OpenAI’s image generator to design an adorable robotic cat, embodying the heart of the brand.
Blake the adorable blogging robot was born! I then used Canva to integrate this charming AI into the YouTube banner.
Finally, with all the pieces in place, BlogMaster Blake was ready to go live!
Can AI Handle YouTube Video Creation?
Now that the channel is complete, you might ask, “What about the videos?” The good news is that AI can indeed craft YouTube videos. Even for short-form content, AI tools streamline the process effectively. I have previously explored this with a TikTok video, demonstrating how those insights easily translate to YouTube Shorts.
1. Idea Generation and Keyword Research
Initially, focus on generating an engaging video topic along with relevant keywords. Resources like HubSpot’s AI Keyword Generator help identify trending keywords fitting your niche.
2. Write and Validate the Script
Imagine a YouTube video highlighting “blogging mistakes to avoid.” ChatGPT can assist by crafting a script using keywords such as “blogging pitfalls” and “how to blog right.” Always validate the AI-generated content for accuracy and relevance.
3. Leverage AI Video Tools
There are countless AI-powered tools to facilitate video creation, like InVideo, which I used to develop a short-form TikTok video. Such platforms can proficiently create YouTube Shorts.
