Roku Debuts 24/7 AI Channel With Fairground as FAST Push Adds 4 New Streams

Summary
Roku this week added a round-the-clock Fairground AI Creator TV feed, making AI-generated video one of four new FAST channels on the platform.
Fairground, a startup launched in 2025, supplies a nonstop lineup of short-form AI videos that viewers can only passively sample rather than select on demand.
The channel gives Fairground access to Roku’s large living-room audience and fits the company’s push to tap generative-AI interest more than to expand traditional programming.
Fairground says it pays creator partners and shares revenue, but it does not disclose which AI models it uses or whether rights were secured for training data.
