🤔 Do your followers care if AI is behind the scenes?
We asked Crreo video creators: 👉 Do you think YOUR audience cares if content is co-created with AI?
Here’s what they told us: 📉 25% – Yes, it changes how they value it ⚖️ 16% – Sometimes, depends on context 👌 36% – Not really, good content is good content 🙈 11% – No, they don’t even notice 🚀 13% – In fact, they prefer it — I have an AI-native audience
Authenticity Anxiety Is Fading
25% of creators say their audiences still look for a clear human touch. But 16% have already moved on — it’s no longer “Should we accept AI?” but “When is the right time to use it?” And 60% of creators tell us their audiences don’t really mind — some even prefer content that’s co-created with AI.
The Largest Group: The Pragmatists
For 36% of creators, audiences only care about the content itself — the value matters far more than the production process.
AI Is Becoming the Default Tool
11% of creators say their audiences didn’t even notice AI was involved — a sign that AI is already blending into the creative process and being treated as just another tool.
AI-Native Audiences Are Emerging
13% of creators report their audiences actually prefer AI-driven content. These viewers are drawn to unique visual styles and new storytelling formats, and they naturally embrace AI as part of the creative process.
🔎 Takeaway
Audiences are becoming more open to AI in video creation. Most people care less about how something is made and more about whether it’s engaging and valuable — and some even prefer an AI-driven style.
For creators, the question is no longer whether to use AI, but how to use it to create content that truly resonates with their audience.
