IShowSpeed Declares He Does Not Use AI for Streaming Content
UPDATE: YouTube star IShowSpeed has just announced he does not utilize artificial intelligence in his streaming content, a revelation made during the Joy Forum 2025 held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on October 16, 2025. This statement comes amid a growing trend of content creators leveraging AI tools to enhance their work.
In a candid exchange with Terry Crews and fellow YouTube sensation MrBeast, IShowSpeed, who boasts over 44.8 million subscribers, discussed the role of AI in their content creation processes. When prompted by Crews about whether they had ever used AI, MrBeast readily admitted, “Have I used ChatGPT? Of course.” In contrast, IShowSpeed revealed, “There’s maybe been one time I was in the country and I searched up ChatGPT, ‘What is it they do in this country?’ Maybe once or twice. But yeah, yes, I did use it once before.”
IShowSpeed emphasized the essence of his unique content style, stating, “I don’t use it. My content is so live and raw. There’s no room for me to use that because everything is live for me. Like, what I’m gonna use AI for when I’m live?” His comments reflect a significant distinction between his real-time streaming approach and the heavily edited content that characterizes other creators, including MrBeast.
During their discussion, IShowSpeed acknowledged the practicality of using AI for video planning, particularly for creators like MrBeast, who handle extensive footage. “Your videos are long for like thousands of hours, like hours of footage. Mine’s just live. I don’t have to edit. I don’t have to do none of that,” he explained, underscoring the spontaneity of his format.
In a surprising twist, MrBeast proposed a potential scenario where IShowSpeed might benefit from AI, suggesting, “The only thing I can think of is maybe a live translation? So you could talk to people, that’d be cool.” This exchange indicates a possibility for IShowSpeed to explore new avenues in his content creation, expanding the horizons of his already dynamic streaming style.
The conversation, which has gone viral on social media, showcases the ongoing debate about the role of artificial intelligence in creative industries. As more creators integrate AI into their workflows, IShowSpeed’s commitment to a purely live and unfiltered approach resonates with fans who appreciate his authenticity.
WATCH: Speed reveals he’s never used AI for streaming, but he has used it occasionally to look up cool things about the countries he visits. The full discussion is generating buzz across platforms, with fans eager to see how this might influence IShowSpeed’s future projects.
As the conversation continues to unfold, followers are left wondering: will IShowSpeed take MrBeast’s advice and experiment with AI in his live content? Stay tuned for more developments as this story evolves.
