Thinking of starting video editing as a side hustle, but worried about AI and competition.

​

I've been thinking about starting as a freelance editor to make some extra income, but I keep seeing a lot of negativity lately. People say the market is oversaturated, clients are difficult, and Al is automating everything.

Is it still viable to start as a beginner right now, or is the "golden age" over? I'm willing to put in the work to learn, but I don't want to chase a dying industry. Also, for those who are working: where would you recommend a total beginner start learning the craft today? (YouTube, paid courses, etc.?)
