$200,000 making film recaps with AI voice-overs

26 January, 2023



Many people think that YouTube doesn't allow YouTube channels using AI voice-overs to be monetized.

 

Let's take an example.

 

The YouTube channel "Film Recaps" is using an AI voice on his latest video "Kind Man Is Buried Alive By His Wife, Making Him Show Her His Psychotic Side".

 

This voice-over is probably made with Amazon Polly API.

 

This YouTube channel has made more than 69 million views in 14 months.

 

It is estimated that a YouTuber makes $3 to $5 per every 1,000 views. We can estimate that the YouTube channel "Film Recaps" has earned around two hundred thousand dollars.

 

How to check if a YouTube channel is monetized :

 

use a browser like Chrome and go to the channel's page. Then click the right-button on your mouse and select "view page source". When you're on view page source, hit CTRL+F to open the search box and search the value "is_monetization_enabled". If you can read value, colon, true after "is_monetization_enabled" then the channel is monetized.

 

So that's an example showing that you can successfully monetize a YouTube channel using AI voice-overs.

 

And of course there is no guarantee that any channel will be accepted for monetization, using AI voices or not.
