Influencer definitely doesn’t have a high entry barrier. Grab a camera, a microphone and start streaming your gameplay.
But it’s a sea of blood out there.
Btw if you like tinkering with cars, it’s a good business to offer on-site “suites” — just change tires, change battery and change oil — just do these three and a lot of people including me are going to happily offer you 80-100 CAD. If I go to a dealership, they charge me something around 250 and I need to wait for 4 hours at least, with an appointment.
You don’t need to do the more advanced work that requires heavy equipment, just do these three and maybe also change filters.
Perhaps visiting elder-care facilities and have them hand you pictures from their youth then using AI to make videos of a younger version of them participating in events from that time period and including videos of their departed loved ones back then and aged to be with them today. It should be cost adjusted for elderly to afford and they should get at least one free short video demo. Use this hobby to perfect ones skills.
Once one is good at this assist intelligence agencies and politicians with making ultra-realistic propaganda and blackmail videos to make the public question the validity of every video they see.
That's clearly a sarcastic comment, but I'll reply as if it wasn't, since many people think this things can actually be a good idea.
The fake memories we didn't know we needed. No, wait, we actually don't need them.
This is how we humans completely forget the importance of actual truth and memory and simply substitute it with generated trails likely (maybe?) to have happened.
The second part I was only half kidding. There could be decent money in making believable propaganda videos. Some are already doing it as a jab to their opponents. My ulterior motive would be to desensitize the general public to all video content and make them wary of believing anything they see. adding a layer of insulation from the media and governments to all people instead of just techies.
Elderly that are not using the latest tech would probably enjoy some reviving old memories and see what could have been. On the other hand it may cause them to become depressed. I guess one would have to try it out with a handful of people and study the outcome. It probably would not be a big money maker since most elderly in care facilities are on fixed incomes but it would be good practice. If this was tried I would be curious to see the outcome regarding what percentage appreciated this vs. were depressed by what could have been vs. where they ended up in life.

The second you start trying to monetize your hobby, it stops being a hobby.
You’re looking for a 2nd job or a side hustle. Just call it what it is.

Self-publishing books. Low barrier to entry, high barrier to sustainable profitability.
Authoring your own web novel on webnovel.com or other such websites
It sounds like you have your mind set on videos (which to me is a grind rather than a hobby).
Personally, I would: make video games, 3d models, generative art, board games, short animated films, that kind of stuff.
You'll probably never make money from any of this, but you said "potentially"...
