I think something like that could be great! I also wish learning about EA wouldn't be that difficult or time consuming. About your questions:
- For the people who don't want to change careers because of EA, I think you can still share with them a list of ways they still can have a positive impact in the world, something like what PauseAI has. That shouldn't have a big cost and it would possible to expand about it later.
- Adding to what you wrote, other ways they can still have an impact are:
- Changing their habits of consumption, like becoming vegan and reducing their pollution
- Participating in the community, like in the forums or volunteering
- Sharing the ideas and content, like the video/ course itself
- Small everyday actions caused by learning more about EA, like expanding the moral circle, the causes and having a more rationalist mindset
- Stop working or investing on risky things, like AI capabilities
- I don't think so.
Sounds like an excellent idea to me! Also, don't know if you're aware but Non-Trivial has an online course that sounds similar to what you're talking about, and Kurzgesagt has produced a bunch of videos. Good luck and feel free to send me a DM if you ever want to bounce ideas around.
