I took the video as amplifying the “AI dangerous” narrative that companies like OpenAI and Anthropic are trying to push, seemingly to position themselves as the “safe option” compared to competing open models that they’d Iike to see kneecapped with regulation. Near the end of the video, they do mention that some people see this as AI company marketing, but don’t explain why “AI dangerous” is a beneficial narrative for these companies.

The video also admits that it is based on OpenAI’s account, which means they are basically taking “Sam Altman says” as a reliable source. How about we see the code for the agents in this test? What was the system prompt? Did they just magically collaborate, or were they instructed to do so? Also, isn’t it strange that a couple weeks after Huggingface got hacked, the Nvidia acquisition was announced.

There are a lot of financial incentives in play here, and I stopped trusting Kurzgesagt after the Gates Foundation funding controversy. I wonder, for example, did OpenAI or another member of the AI circle jerk fund this video?

From reading the comments on that video, it seems the average viewer is coming away accepting the “AI dangerous” narrative, so paid or not, this video works in the favor of the tech bros.
