One Creator's Six-Week Experiment with AI-Generated "Faceless" Content

According to a Reddit r/artificial post, a creator spent six weeks running a fully AI-generated "faceless" persona account, tracking every hour invested to test whether the passive income pitch was real. The result: it is not passive. It is gig work with an algorithmic middleman.
The work involved wrangling AI prompts, curating video clips, and gaming platform algorithms — none of which ran on autopilot. The creator's own hour-by-hour accounting punctures the sales narrative popular in creator economy spaces, where AI-generated content is regularly marketed as a path to scalable, low-effort income.
The source is a single firsthand Reddit account — no income figures or platform names are specified in the source material. But the mechanics it describes are consistent with how content monetization actually functions, and a willingness to publish a detailed account that contradicts the hype is a more useful data point than most vendor claims in this space.
