I don't know Ben Levin, but IIRC MrBeast did started as the average Joe and just grew big. And yes, of course the lines do blur over time. If the new creators become big, they start stepping into the realms of professionality and are beginning cooperations with old industry, creating content for the new and old spaces. But they usually still have the average joe-vibes, because that's how people grew with them, how they see and remember them. But also because they continue maintaining this vibes, as this is their habit of working.
> but I think this idea that anyone can just pick up an iphone camera and become a millionaire is a bit disingenuous.
Obviously not everyone can do that, but this is how almost everyone from the new industry started. I would say, it's simply the difference in culture, between old industry professionals trained schools and such, and the self learners of the new industry. Though, old industry is now moving in this space too, so it will change with time.
