The Alignment Problem Explained: Crash Course Futures of AI #4

10 déc. 2025

Could a robot dedicated to a good cause end up destroying the world? Well, maybe. In this episode, we explore how powerful AI could end up causing us harm, regardless of what it’s programmed for. Between misuse by humans, alignment problems, and instrumental goals, even AI built with good intentions could end up breaking bad…unless we do something about it. About This Series: AI is changing FAST so rather than doing a full Crash Course series of 12+ episodes, we’ve prepared a mini-series of just the basics. Crash Course will never tell you what to think and we’re not the type of organization that responds to breaking news in real time. Instead, we’re here to offer a zoomed-out foundation upon which to base your own opinions as you continue to learn from other outlets about the world that’s changing around us. Crash Course: Futures of AI will cover: -What even is AI? What’s the history of this thing and how quickly has it evolved to what exists today? -How could AI transform society? Will AI cause the next Industrial Revolution, and what might that mean for workers and the environment? -How powerful could AI become? How do we measure the progression of AI? What are the consequences we’re already seeing, and what might be the future consequences of unchecked AI development? -How might powerful AI cause harm? We’ll touch on copyright infringement, misinformation, surveillance, authoritarianism, and (unfortunately,) more. -How could AI be governed? What are the potential approaches for controlling AI both nationally and internationally? P.S. Wondering if we used AI to create this series? Nope! Every Complexly video is lovingly, painstakingly human-made. Intro 00:00 Chapter 1: How powerful AI systems can be misused 1:46 Chapter 2: Misalignment in advanced AI systems 3:36 Chapter 3: How instrumental goals could lead to rogue AI 6:43 Chapter 4: The case for the precautionary principle 9:30 Conclusion 11:49 Sources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16br0e73KFVD5qu-VEBV40yQTpBiX0l65EgWQ6Q7Fz-k/edit?usp=sharing *** Support us for $5/month on Patreon to keep Crash Course free for everyone forever! https://www.patreon.com/crashcourse Or support us directly: https://complexly.com/support Join our Crash Course email list to get the latest news and highlights: https://mailchi.mp/crashcourse/email Get our special Crash Course Educators newsletter: http://eepurl.com/iBgMhY Thanks to the following patrons for their generous monthly contributions that help keep Crash Course free for everyone forever: DexcilaDou, Martin G.

Life under a dictatorship: Crash Course Latin American Literature #5

4 déc. 2025

How do you honor the memory of something… that you don’t fully remember?

How close is the worst case scenario?: Crash Course Futures of AI #3

3 déc. 2025

Way back in the 1930s, Alan Turing gave us a glimpse of the power of computers with a hypothetical machine that, he said, could solve any computable problem. But that was nonsense…right? Well thanks to recursive progress, maybe not. In this episode, we’ll explore how humans (and computers) make progress, and try to find out just how powerful AI could become.

How is AI impacting society?: Crash Course Futures of AI #2

26 nov. 2025

AI is taking over…or is it? And what would that look like anyway? The smarter it gets, the better AI will become at doing– basically everything. That could lead us to a bright future, with booming economies and tons of free time for us human beings. But it could also lead us to something a lot darker. In order to prepare for that transition, we have to try and understand what it would really look like.

The History of AI Explained: Crash Course Futures of AI #1

19 nov. 2025

In 1965, Moore’s Law predicted how computers would become smaller, faster, and more powerful than ever before. But here in 2025, we’re on the brink of an even bigger revolution. In this episode, we explore where AI's been, what it can do, and where it might be going. AI benchmarks and scaling laws help us understand what AI is, and could be, capable of. Introduction 00:00 How did AI get here? 2:21 How do we measure AI progress? 7:47 How can we predict the future of AI? 9:10 Conclusion 11:29 About This Series: AI is changing FAST so rather than doing a full Crash Course series of 12+ episodes, we’ve prepared a mini-series of just the basics. Crash Course will never tell you what to think and we’re not the type of organization that responds to breaking news in real time. Instead, we’re here to offer a zoomed-out foundation upon which to base your own opinions as you continue to learn from other outlets about the world that’s changing around us. Crash Course: Futures of AI will cover: -What even is AI? What’s the history of this thing and how quickly has it evolved to what exists today? -How could AI transform society? Will AI cause the next Industrial Revolution, and what might that mean for workers and the environment? -How powerful could AI become? How do we measure the progression of AI? What are the consequences we’re already seeing, and what might be the future consequences of unchecked AI development? -How might powerful AI cause harm? We’ll touch on copyright infringement, misinformation, surveillance, authoritarianism, and (unfortunately,) more. -How could AI be governed? What are the potential approaches for controlling AI both nationally and internationally? P.S. Wondering if we used AI to create this series? Nope! Every Complexly video is lovingly, painstakingly human-made.

Crash Course Preview: What Are the Possible Futures of AI?

18 nov. 2025

Welcome to Crash Course: Futures of AI! Our host Kousha Navidar is here to guide you through the ins and outs of our potential AI futures. AI is changing FAST so rather than doing a full Crash Course series of 12+ episodes, we’ve prepared a mini-series of just the basics. Crash Course will never tell you what to think and we’re not the type of organization that responds to breaking news in real time. Instead, we’re here to offer a zoomed-out foundation upon which to base your own opinions as you continue to learn from other outlets about the world that’s changing around us. Crash Course: Futures of AI will cover: -What even is AI? What’s the history of this thing and how quickly has it evolved to what exists today? -How could AI transform society? Will AI cause the next Industrial Revolution, and what might that mean for workers and the environment? -How powerful could AI become? How do we measure the progression of AI? What are the consequences we’re already seeing, and what might be the future consequences of unchecked AI development? -How might powerful AI cause harm? We’ll touch on copyright infringement, misinformation, surveillance, authoritarianism, and (unfortunately,) more. -How could AI be governed? What are the potential approaches for controlling AI both nationally and internationally? P.S. Wondering if we used AI to create this series? Nope! Every Complexly video is lovingly, painstakingly human-made.

The Secret Language of Cults: Crash Course Lecture

16 sept. 2025

Words hold tremendous power. Cult leaders know that all too well — but so do fitness instructors, celebrities, and corporate leaders. In our world today, we are increasingly exposed to, and influenced by, complicated mazes of buzzwords, mantras, euphemisms, clichés, and redefinitions: in short, language that’s just a little bit cultish. Social commentator and author Amanda Montell presents this Crash Course lecture about linguistics, culture, and belonging. What’s a Crash Course Lecture? While traditional Crash Courses on our channel break open an entire school subject, a Crash Course lecture tackles a single topic in-depth. Each lecture shares the perspective of a scholar, journalist, or thinker.
