Wodonga mum builds half a billion views using AI from her bedroom
Nikkie Burns built a following of more than 300,000 and half a billion video views using AI to create content from home.
Nikkie Burns from Wodonga turned to artificial intelligence after health issues forced her to leave work. Nikkie now creates ASMR videos from her bedroom for more than 300,000 followers, racking up half a billion views without ever showing her face.
ASMR is the internet's world of whispering, tapping, crunching and other satisfying sounds. Burns writes every prompt herself and works with AI tools to bring them to life.
She describes her work as precise and deliberate, spending long hours on details like exact lighting colours and object sounds. Burns says AI amplifies the creator's own vision.
She has learned that generic use of the tools produces bland results. Her captions and connections with viewers, she says, remain entirely her own craft.
The technology has given her a way to earn and build something meaningful from home despite living with multiple illnesses and limited energy.
