I Tried Making Money Using AI on TikTok

the ridiculous way to make thousands

Two months ago, I stumbled across a YouTube video promoting the usage of AI on TikTok to make stupid money and fast. It was almost unbelievable how easily the video laid out the execution of using AI to make nearly $4,000 per month.

Yes, $4,000 per month.

But how is this possible?

Through TikTok’s Creator Program, of course.

TikTok Creator Program allows creators to earn a CPM of $1 per 1,000 views on a video. The only requirement is that the video needs to be a minute or longer. And completely original content. But we will circle back to the original content part later.

So if a creator uploads a video that manages to score 1 million views, that is $1,000.

If that didn’t make you sit up in your seat, I don’t think you’re prepared for the journey I took myself on to try to achieve such numbers.

The idea explained in the YouTube video was simple.

Find a topic, create a script, have an AI voice the script, caption the script onto the video, and obtain some visuals to slap onto the background of the video.

It sounds super easy, right?
