MrBeast expresses his concerns over AI-generated videos

On his social media account, MrBeast wrote, “When AI videos are just as good as normal videos, I wonder what that will do to YouTube and how it will impact the millions of creators currently making content for a living.. scary times.” He made the remarks in reference to the rise in AI videos generated from OpenAI’s Sora 2.

However, there are ways to differentiate between the original videos and AI-generated ones. The basic way to tell that the clips are from Sora 2 is the company's watermark that bounces on the screen. Moreover, the quality of hand-filmed videos and AI-generated ones varies, which is noticeable to the audience to point out the immense use of technology in the content.
