On December 25, 2026, the movie Artificial about Sam Altman’s firing is set to come out. Can it somehow raise public awareness of AI risks? Is it possible to reach out to someone in the film industry who could help?
Some possible ideas:
Preparing high-quality explainers like agy.fyi/agi.wtf for people who google “Artificial movie true story” after watching. Would likely also make sense to purchase some good domain names for this purpose (like openai.wtf or smth like that)
Timing op-eds, interviews and podcast appearances to the release
Reaching journalists who will review the film
Getting something into the film itself (e.g. a QR code in the credits linking to good resources). Probably too late, and no longer feasible. Or perhaps I’m mistaken?
