Longer description of your proposed project

Good for Humans will be a YouTube show about high impact causes (from AI risk to animal welfare to global health) aimed at the general public. The tone will be educational but funny and down to earth - How to With John Wilson meets Vox Explainer videos meets the 80,000 Hours podcast.

We are seeking a grant to make three episodes of the show on these topics:

1. AI Risk

2. Antimicrobial Resistance

3. Farmed Animal Welfare

For a given topic, each episode will answer:

- What are the risks if things stay as they are or get worse?

- What are the benefits if things go right?

- What can you do as a regular person to help things go right?

We will co-create every episode with a top subject matter expert. For example, David McKinney co-founder of the Alliance for Reducing Microbial Resistance would work with us on the AMR episode.

Describe why you think you're qualified to work on this

I've been in the field of online learning for 17 years, having been the first content hire at three different ed tech startups that collectively raised over $200 million. I've built classes on everything from logic to leadership to lock picking. And I've become completely obsessed with AI, for better or worse.

I've developed a knack for taking complex material and turning it into engaging and useful educational content. The videos, classes, and adaptive experiences have been used by millions of people across the world, from college students to senior executives. And my partners in this project are world-class creatives, including Boris Khaykin, a comedian and editor at Conde Nast, and AJ Ferrer, a videographer and producer.

As a team we have created several viral videos. Boris has been working recently with Fire (the organization, not the element) and is responsible for this gem you may have seen on TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O67dGv5kIOU
