Not to mention that with artificial intelligence (AI) quickly reshaping the world, passive income can be easily generated nowadays even in your sleep. Whether you are a tech geek or not, AI has intelligent and scalable solutions that take minimum or zero collective effort once they are implemented in place.
In my article these are 7 genius ideas on how to make passive income using AI in 2025 and some real-world examples of making AIs work for you.

Example:
Come up with concepts of t-shirt or motivational sayings designed using AI technology. Submit them to a print as you order service. Delivery and shipping are automatic when the customers place orders on the site.
Passive potential:
When you list your designs, anyone who purchases them collects: there is no inventory, or customer service involved.
3. YouTube Automation AI Channels

YouTube automation is an emerging trend in which AI is used in producing faceless video content. Tranzlate your scripts into narrated videos using scripts, stock footage, and a voiceover using such apps as Pictory, Lumen5 or Synthesia.

Au work:
The trading bots are used in automatic trading in which market data are reviewed and the bots would make a trade. Services such as Tickeron, Trade Ideas, and Kryll allow you to implement prepared or designed trading algorithms with the help of AI.

Begin small, tamper with this or that strategy, and you will find out that it is not a dream to have an AI working in your favor but the reality.
