MrBeast used AI to create YouTube thumbnails. People weren't pleased
Briefly

MrBeast, a YouTube sensation, faces backlash after unveiling an AI-powered thumbnail generator, which some creators claim steals their artistic identity.

Notably, Jacksepticeye expressed outrage after seeing his logo misused. In response to the backlash, MrBeast committed to redesign the tool to better support artists rather than replace them. This incident has ignited intense discussions in the YouTube community about the ethics of using AI in content creation and the impact on originality.
