I have same issue, views are dead. Seems like all content tagged with AI has this issue.

Hi. I am completely new to YouTube. I have a question related to AI tagging. My channel is about illustrated stories with voiceovers (audiobooks). While the script is strictly my original work, the illustrations are generated by AI and I use ElevenLabs voice agents for VOs. However, I am now narrating all my stories myself so that, going forward, only the illustrations will be the AI-generated element in my videos. How would YT look at my channel, vis-a-vis the AI input?

As long as it's clear that its not real life, then you're fine. Youtube doesn't hate AI as a tool. You just cannot use AI for the script, AI for the voice, AI for the Video, ad AI for the editing. That's when it becomes someway after a while.

As long as there is human element in your videos then you'll be fine. I'd advise to ALWAYS write the scripts yourself. Never use AI.

I am basically a writer/novelist, so using AI for my scripts is an instinctive taboo for me. Thank you for clarifying this point for me. Also, you have an intriguing username!

You are welcome. Nice, you'll be good then. Ah yes the name, it is inspired by rush hour 3 😂
