Perhaps you’re one of the many American workers worried about artificial intelligence taking over your job. AI has certainly been in the headlines lately amid discussions about how the technology could replace human workers.

Also check out how to make more money and maximize your time using AI.
Content Websites Creator
Nick Loper, host of the Side Hustle Nation podcast, said niche sites are having a resurgence. That’s one reason Loper listed having an AI-powered content website as one side gig to make extra money.
You could learn about AI and then work with the technology to create content for a website. You’ll probably want to add your own human touch to AI-generated content so it ranks better and reads better for visitors.
Copywriter
Similarly, you could use AI to help with a side gig as a copywriter. Those are folks who write sales copy.
“As it stands, AI tools can generate a rough draft for you, but they can’t quite yet provide you with the hook or angle you need to write good copy,” according to Loper.
Coloring Books Author
Here’s another AI-powered creative outlet you could use as a side gig. You may have seen lots of choices when it comes to adult coloring books.
Loper suggested trying a platform like Midjourney to help you quickly create coloring books.
YouTube Operator
If you’ve wanted to create a YouTube channel but don’t want to be on-camera for your videos, maybe it’s time to use AI to help you.
You can find AI-powered video generators and work on creating your own faceless YouTube channel.
Image Improvement Pro
Here’s a way to work with photography without taking the pictures yourself.
You can find an AI tool like ClipDrop to help customers clean up images. “There are even tools that allow you to automatically enlarge and enhance pictures, clean them up, and remove watermarks,” according to Loper.
You can offer your services on online marketplaces.
AI Bot Developer
If you’re a person who finds online bots annoying, maybe you can use them to your advantage and to help your bank account. AI bots are computer programs used to talk to people.
You could use AI tools to create and sell your own bots. Loper suggested starting simple – making a customer service bot for a small business or creating a bot to help others with scheduling.
