Kurzgesagt, the popular science YouTube channel, has finally released a proper video on AI safety — something fans have waited years for — using the Hugging Face incident as its central case study, and early reactions call it really good.
One notable critique from the thread: the video lacks a call to action at the end, leaving viewers anxious without anything constructive to do — a common gap between explaining AI risk and enabling response.
