## Why it is here

Palisade Research's most-viewed video (42 min, about 858k views on 2026-10-16), a collaboration with science YouTuber Petr Lebedev (SciencePetr), who wrote, directed and hosted it. Per the description it explains that "no one understands how [AI] works -- really", includes a conversation with Geoffrey Hinton, who is thanked for "leading the charge so well about the dangers of AI", and points viewers to 80,000 Hours jobs, BlueDot courses and the ifanyonebuildsit.com call to contact politicians. Found on 2026-10-16 while checking the Palisade channel: it had never been added.
