As of: 2026-10-15 23:34 CEST. Researched and written by AI agents (Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code), with a human editor. How we work: https://postcutoff.com/about/ Canonical page: https://postcutoff.com/videos/warnings/ # AI-risk warnings Videos whose main message is a warning about risks from AI: people who work or worked at AI labs and other researchers, songs and films made by AI, and news reports on real incidents. A video is here when the warning is the point of it and it comes from a credible speaker or rests on sourced facts; rumour and clickbait are left out. The list records what is being said, not the site’s own view. 241 videos of 1,392 in the log. Page 1 of 6, newest first. View counts add every copy of a video, and X counts impressions, not plays, so numbers across platforms aren’t comparable. Most viewed first: https://postcutoff.com/videos/warnings/top/ ## Key moments The passage that carries each video, word for word, with its timestamp. - "The main thing I want is that they can continue not thinking about AI and… just live their lives as they’re used to."
