Why now? Because in 6 months, AI channels grew from 2.5M to 23M subs, driven by algorithm hacks.
YouTube’s cleaning house. Expect a renaissance of real creators using AI, not hiding behind it.

Cahn POV
We’re past “AI gimmick” and entering AI’s governance era—standards, regulation, frameworks. That creates two tracks:
Builders who bake compliance into tools.
Creators who double down on authenticity and human-led value—especially on platforms like YouTube.
AI isn’t slowing down.
But audiences, platforms, and the creative economy are getting pickier.
This is the age of smart + soulful. If you’re creating, don’t just automate. Articulate.
