ControlAI Sponsors The Infographics Show's "AI Bubble" Videos, Sparking Bias Allegations
jessi_cata · x · 2026-11-01
jessicata reports that YouTube channel The Infographics Show is sponsored by ControlAI, an AI-risk/slowdown organization, while publishing videos arguing AI is a financial bubble — an ironic pairing, since AI-risk concern usually assumes AI will become highly capable soon. The thread links ControlAI's "creator outreach program," which sponsors videos with script review involved, and notes the channel is listed on a site backed by the Center for AI Safety. The author says recent AI-bubble videos present facts in a misleading, biased way to suggest an impending financial crash.
