Thank you for putting in the effort to make this Video! Even though the comments went into a “lewd=bad?” Discussion pretty quickly, in my opinion it does a very good job of transmitting, that misalignment is something that can actually happen in real life and we should be concerned about.
It is valuable, because it connects the theory to real life experience and a true story (also good clickbait). “Catastrophic AI risk” is widely discussed in other videos anyways, so based on transfer learning many viewers will probably get the point anyways.
Also I wanted to let you know, that together with kurzgesagt, rational animation is my favorite channel right now and I do recommend it highly to friends.
The style of animation is delightful and I love seeing these LW topics come to live on screen.
Thanks! I am not “really” new though. Have just been reading for the last few months but I suppose this actually was my first comment 😅
Also, if you already know LW, the channel screams “Hey, this is LW stuff!”. But I don’t think I would have made the connection if I encountered the channel first.
It does a hell of a job getting the “average” nerd informed and interested in these topics though, which is really nice.
Not sure how the average population fares. I suppose the videos have way too much content to appeal to a mainstream audience…
Which is good, in a way.
Somebody has to do the “informing the public”-chore at some point though, but it might as well be someone else ^^
