80,000 Hours is launching "AI in Context," a new YouTube channel hosted by Aric Floyd, with associated Instagram and TikTok accounts. The channel aims to inform, entertain, and energize viewers with videos about the risks of transformative AI and potential actions. Their first long-form video explores the AI Futures Project's AI 2027 scenario, which depicts a future involving potential human extinction or unprecedented power concentration. The program seeks to provide a framework for understanding AI's trajectory and dangers, inviting the public into the conversation about superintelligence and its implications. They are also experimenting with short-form videos and plan to cover relevant news, skits, and explanations of useful concepts. The team encourages viewers to subscribe, share the AI 2027 video, and provide feedback on their new content.
