I won't make tutorial videos anymore. Here is what I will do instead

Overview

The creator says they’re stopping tutorials and AI-focused content because AI has reduced developers’ need for traditional YouTube courses. They argue that AI can provide “just enough” guidance to solve problems or implement features, making long, comprehensive tutorial series less necessary.

They also note that many developer channels have already stopped posting tutorials or shifted to different formats. Even the biggest remaining tutorial creators are reportedly seeing substantially lower views—“several times lower.”

Why They’re Changing Direction

AI reduces demand for traditional courses

• AI can offer targeted, just-in-time help for specific issues or features.
• This lowers the value of lengthy, end-to-end tutorial series.

Tutorial content isn’t financially sustainable

• Many developers fund their channels by selling courses or programs.
• After AI became widely used, course purchases dropped significantly.
• As a result, frequent tutorial video production became financially difficult to sustain.

New Plan: Build Projects Instead of Tutorials

The creator plans to pivot from tutorials to building their own projects:

• Mobile development (earlier in the year):
  • The creator claims results were weak due to market saturation (many more apps created with AI) and limited marketing.
• Game development (second half of the year):
  • The shift is driven by personal interest.
  • They believe game development is a better long-term direction for the channel.

Posting Schedule Update

• Instead of posting two videos per week, they will post about twice per month.
• This reduced cadence will continue while they work on their first game, which they say is already underway.
