AI Music Videos Are Here: The New Genre 'AI Doompop'

has just crossed a line: it can now make music videos that feel genuinely human. Using new tools like Claude Opus 5.5 and Suno 6, people are creating songs and videos entirely with AI. These videos are being called 'AI Doompop'—a mix of doom, pop, and AI themes. They cover everything from the daily life of software engineers to the fear of AI taking over. The result is often funny, emotional, and surprisingly catchy. For example, one video titled 'Run It Again' gave the author chills, making them feel like they were watching the worst AI will ever be at tugging heartstrings.

So what does this mean for you? First, it means that soon, anyone with an idea can make a music video without needing a camera, actors, or a band. That could lead to a flood of new content, some of it great, some of it terrible. It also means that AI is getting better at mimicking human creativity, which could change how we think about art and entertainment. You might start seeing AI-generated music videos on YouTube, TikTok, or even at events like Secular Solstice. Some people are already planning to make AI music videos for specific occasions, like holidays or internet memes.

The catch is that this technology is still new and not perfect. The videos might look or sound a bit off, and there's a risk that the internet gets overwhelmed with low-quality AI content—what some call 'slop.' But the author argues that this is the worst AI will ever be at this, meaning it will only get better. Whether you love it or hate it, AI-generated music videos are coming. They might even become a new art form that elevates human self-expression—or just another passing fad. Either way, it's worth paying attention to because it shows how quickly AI is changing what's possible.
