AI tools are currently a huge help in creating videos for social media in general, and YouTube in particular. Let’s discuss how to use these AI tools to produce videos for social media platforms.

would be curious what @Invictus has on that list, no reason to keep it secret lol

my workflow for shorts/reels is pretty simple these days. script first, i just dump the topic into a chat model and get like 5 hooks, pick the least cringe one. then for voice i use elevenlabs but honestly the free tts on some of these tools is getting good enough for faceless stuff. visuals depend on the niche... for talking head style i mostly use heygen or just runway/pika for b-roll if its a listicle type video.

one thing nobody mentions is the editing part still eats most of your time. capcut has an auto captions thing thats decent and opus clip is ok for chopping long form into shorts but it misses context a lot, you end up fixing timestamps manually anyway.

the trap imo is thinking you can go fully automated and just print videos. the fully ai channels get flat pretty fast, algo seems to sniff it out. i get better retention when i at least rewrite the script in my own voice and swap the generic stock feel with something specific.

whats everyone using for thumbnails btw, thats the part i still cant automate well
 
Most of today's leading AI tools are capable of creating AI-generated videos. The key to success isn't the tool itself, it's coming up with engaging ideas and choosing topics that capture and hold viewers' attention.

AI tools can definitely save a lot of time especially for scripting, voiceovers and basic editing.
I think they work best when you combine them with your own ideas instead of relying on AI for everything.

Exactly ! Creativity is the cornerstone of getting viewers and creating a passionate audience.
 
AI tools definitely speed up the workflow but I think the biggest advantage comes from using them to save time not replace creativity Good scripting editing and storytelling still make the biggest difference regardless of which tools you use
 
AI tools are very useful for generating content; for example, I have used Google for TTS, ComfyUI with some local models to generate images or videos, and to generate content with voice off.
 
they help, but the content still has to be original or there needs to be some added value I mean
 
AI has definitely made video creation much faster, especially for scripting voiceovers editing and thumbnails

I think the real advantage is using AI to save time while still adding your own ideas and personality

Videos that feel original usually perform much better than fully AI-generated content
 
Honestly, AI changed my video workflow completely. I use ChatGPT for scripting hooks, ElevenLabs for voiceover (I add pauses manually so it sounds human), Opus Clip to auto-cut shorts, and Canva AI for quick thumbnails. Biggest trap is thinking AI does everything – it doesn't, viewers can tell. It's just a fast assistant, the personality still has to be you.
 
Using AI tools helps optimize the video production process. You can automate everything from scripting and image creation to scene editing and short video cutting, significantly saving time and costs.
 
No doubt, AI is great for saving time. I use AI to speed up the process, but I still think human editing is what makes a video stand out.
 
Using AI tools helps optimize the video production process. By automating scripting, image creation, scene editing, and voiceovers, creators can significantly save time and costs, and quickly publish content in bulk on YouTube Creator or TikTok.

As a content creator I don’t fully depend on ai. I just take ideas from ai how should i write my content script after I manually shoot my content and edit them. Never fully depend on ai it’ll ruin your content quality. Use ai smartly not blindly
 
Automated video creation and subtitling: Leverage all-in-one platforms like CapCut, Invideo AI, or VEED.IO to automatically generate eye-catching subtitles, add background music, transition effects, and adjust the frame orientation (vertical/horizontal).
 
AI really help work my video creation for social media platforms. I can easily make a script using ChatGPT. Personally i like to use VEO3 for creating the video. I edit videos for CapCut. It really helps us.

These are wonderful insights! I will try to learn from them. Thank you very much !
 
Most valuable asset is AI to script and repurpose rather than AI to create videos What happens is that you have one large idea, and AI br eaks it down into a series of shorts, hooks, and captions, while I work on the visuals using AI such as Runway/Pika
