Finding True Value in AI Content Creation

The REAL value of AI isn't in churning out content on autopilot. For at least the next decade, the value comes from skilled humans who can weave AI-generated pieces into something truly meaningful - and ideally profitable 😂

Elevating Content Standards

Despite the infamous surge in garbage content, AI should raise the bar for content quality.

AI, when used properly, will allow creators to boost both quantity and quality. But here's the secret sauce: those who focus on QUALITY will likely come out on top. It's not just about churning out more; it's about crafting better.

For example - RaunchyRemix - reached 2 million accounts on Instagram just 30 days by leveraging AI assisted parody songs.

Sure, quality is subjective. But when in doubt, you can usually put numbers to the art in question. Impressions, engagement, revenue, etc...

Or you can just ask people - is this actually good?

What was considered top-notch human content a decade ago might not outshine some modern AI-generated work. But don't panic – this isn't about replacement. It's about enhancement.

The Key to Success

Someone with fairly basic coding experience could use Claude or ChatGPT to whip up a stock modeling application in less than a week.

Or a Python script that streamlines vocal changes (lyric swaps) - which I have actually done.

👉 Pro tip: LLMs are extremely helpful for coding right now.

But the average Joe wouldn't even think of those ideas, let alone execute them.

This shift is similar to how we've had access to virtually all known information for over a decade, yet most people still struggle to apply it effectively.

Not everyone is a billionaire with 6-pack abs. 

It's not about the tools; it's about how you use them. And a little luck, of course.

This is where human ingenuity shines. In the right hands, AI makes the impossible possible.

While some folks might use AI for churning out garbage YouTube videos, visionaries will use it as a launchpad for groundbreaking ideas.

AI as a Means, Not an End

Here's where many people get it wrong. They view AI as the end product.

Right now, there is a paradox where everyone seems to expect content production to be free and easy with full AI, but they crap on anything that is noticeably AI.

When people are consumers, they want their content a certain way.

But when those consumers try to produce the thing they love, they slowly realize there is a big gap between full AI and good results.

The real magic is in the questions we ask and the tools we create around AI. What keeps people glued to social media? What makes a sitcom actually good? These are the questions that lead to relevant, engaging content.

Revise. revise. revise.

The antithesis to an instant AI generated answer.

 

Competition and Nuance in AI-Assisted Creation

It all boils down to competition and game theory. 🏆

For better or worse - art is monetized based on the attention it garners. Art is the OG attention economy.

For anything to be "successful", it needs to outperform the rest. AI gives many people the ability to up their game, raising the average bar for everything – music, programming, art, you name it.

There's a level of nuance and detail that AI still has a long way to master by itself. That's where human creativity comes in, combining AI tools in innovative ways.

For those looking to check out the Top AI Music Tools right now, read this article. Some of the tools are truly mind boggling.

Remember, if you're looking to create unique, AI-assisted music that stands out, my personalized music and audio creation service might be just what you need.

For now, it's not about AI versus humans. It's about humans leveraging AI to push the boundaries of creativity and quality.
