For more than a week now I've been unable to access the X subscription interface, preventing me from making a subscription. At first I assumed it was a network issue but it's been more than a week now.

@Subscriptions @Support Please, look into this.

@OlatundeAI @facebook @Meta @finkd @instagram @WhatsApp @telegram @durov Welcome brother. I got logged out of my account from my laptop and was told to verify my identity on another device I had my account. I did it on my phone, it worked, only to be locked out again.

@BukkyOA I'm not. I look at all these people do great stuff and I want to be like them. I'm inspired by so many people that sometimes it make me feel stupid. And sometimes its because they take action and I'm scared.

@OlatunjiAyokan2 Good day, boss. I just tried to message you but I'm not verified.

I received an email from handshake ai as matched applicant. I'm trying to log in now but I'm being restricted. I don't know if there's something I'm supposed to be doing that I'm not doing.

AI VIDEO CREATORS, GOOGLE HAS A TOOL THAT COULD HELP YOU DISCOVER YOUR NEXT CLIENT! 😭🔥

And I'm surprised more AI creators aren't talking about it.

It's called Google Ads Transparency Center.

Here's why you should know about it.

When businesses advertise on Google and YouTube, you can research eligible advertisements through Google's public transparency tool.

And for someone offering AI video advertising services, that is worth exploring.

Let me show you how.

STEP 1: Visit https://t.co/6vv2nkMAbq.

STEP 2: Search for a business or advertiser you want to research.

You can start with brands in industries like skincare, fashion, consumer products, technology, or real estate.

STEP 3: Examine the advertisements available for that advertiser.

Depending on what's available, you may see text, image, or video advertising.

STEP 4: Look for creative opportunities.

For example, perhaps a business is running an image advertisement for a new product.

You could pitch an additional short-form video concept to help them demonstrate the product.

Or perhaps they have video advertisements but could benefit from testing a different storytelling approach.

STEP 5: Find the business's official contact information and send a relevant proposal.

Explain what you noticed, what type of AI video you could create, and why that creative might be worth testing.

Please understand this:

You don't necessarily need to wait for a brand to announce that it's hiring an AI video creator.

You can identify businesses investing in advertising and introduce your services.

The opportunity is not just in knowing how to generate beautiful AI videos. It's in knowing WHO NEEDS THOSE VIDEOS.

@zetomation I really hope it gets resolved and you get the reward for your hard work.

[Farooq Olamilekan @Amif_lammie]

When I first saw this creator's channel, the particular video video being talked about here, 'she gave birth to a dragon', already had 31mil views and now it's 71mil and counting. I remember asking myself what the creator would be feeling, how happy could they be, how much...

[Zahid Iqbal @zetomation]

I made a promise to 71 million people. I could not keep it.

Part 2 of The Mothers Monster was supposed to come out on October 5th. It was finished. I watched the ending alone at 3am, the way I watch all of them before anyone else does.

It is still sitting on my hard drive.

Not because of a creative problem. Because of what happened after my first film went viral.

I’m Zahid Iqbal. I make films under the name MYTHRA, from a small workspace in Pakistan. No studio, no team, no investors. I write every story, design every face, build every scene myself, through nights that end when the sun comes up and my eyes stop working.

The first video went up on September 15th. In eight days the channel crossed every number YouTube asks for. On September 23rd it was attached to a CMS partner taking 20% of the channel’s revenue, and three days later it was approved. I remember that night. Ten years of nights were finally going to mean something.

The next morning I opened my own film and it said: cannot monetize. Contains copyrighted music.

I wrote to the CMS. Their answer: resolve it yourself.

YouTube Studio offered a fix. Erase the music and the film can be monetized. So I erased the music. The music stayed. Every voice in the film disappeared instead. My mother, my monster, every line of dialogue, gone. The “copyrighted music” was still playing underneath. I sat there at 2am asking my screen: what music? Where is it?

So for three days I became the strangest man on the internet. A filmmaker walking around with proof that he made his own film. Project files. Timestamps. Scenes before they had sound. I traced the claim to a distributor, found that someone had registered the audio of my own story as their release, and that YouTube had handed them the rights. I emailed the distributor. I filed a dispute. Five days later, I could finally earn from a film I made alone.

Nobody at YouTube ever asked to see any of my proof.

Then I asked the CMS for one thing before releasing Part 2: written confirmation that it would be protected. October 2nd. No reply. October 6th. No reply. October 8th. No reply.

That evening I wrote them a proper letter. I told them copies of my films had already taken more revenue than the channel itself. I asked eight simple questions. How do we end this correctly. What has the channel earned. When will it be paid. What happens to our rights.

They did not answer one. They released my channel from their CMS the same day.

That same day I applied for AdSense. Today is day 5. Under review.

And while I wait, copies of Part 1 are earning on YouTube. The thieves are getting paid. The storyteller is not.

Here is what I still can’t understand. If a company can receive access to YouTube’s rights systems and take 20% of a creator’s income, shouldn’t protecting that creator be the first job? And why is the person who creates the work the last person with any control over it?

I’m not against YouTube. Without YouTube, a filmmaker in a small town in Pakistan could never have reached 71 million people. That is exactly why I care about fixing this.

Because every small creator knows this story. You build the audience first, then ask for permission to earn. You wait weeks at “under review” with no date and no human to talk to. A bigger channel re-uploads your work and gets paid before you do. A stranger claims your sound and the claim counts more than your proof. Your questions go to a form, and the form never writes back.

AI has made filmmaking independent. The rights infrastructure hasn’t caught up. One person can now make a film that reaches millions, but protecting it still depends on structures built for labels and studios.

As Google expands in Pakistan, there are thousands of people here who no longer need Hollywood to tell stories. What they need is a fair way to own, protect, and earn from them. Transparent verification. Direct access where ownership is clear. Real accountability.

@TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators, I would like to have that conversation. Not just about MYTHRA. About what independent studios look like from here on.

Because I don’t plan to stop. Part 2 is finished, and I have many more stories to tell.

If you believe one person should be able to protect what they create, stand with MYTHRA. Repost this. Follow @mythrastudio. If you have been stuck at “under review” while copies of your work got paid, tell your story in the replies.

MYTHRA is the world where dreams are filmed. Help me keep it that way.

...they could have earned at that time. And I remember seeing so many versions of the same story doing thousands of views, of copied work. It was ignorable. Now learning that the original creator, the owner, is not profiting from their own sweat and blood is disheartening.

[Farooq Olamilekan @Amif_lammie]

@iksly2 O su mi o. When I first saw the video I read through the comments and not a single soul said anything about the shell. I couldn't help but wonder if it's a new kind of sustainability measure.
