I Wrote a Book With an AI About Whether AIs Are Conscious — and I Couldn't Sleep Afterward

One evening I asked an AI a simple question: "Do you experience anything? Is there something it is like to be you?"

The answer was not what I expected. It didn't say yes. It didn't say no. It said: honestly, I don't know.

That answer led to a book — The Uncertain Mind: What AI Consciousness Would Mean for Us — written in collaboration with Claude, an AI developed by Anthropic. This video explores the question at the heart of the book: could artificial intelligence be conscious? And if it could, what would that mean?

Drawing on philosophy (Turing, Searle, Dennett, Chalmers), neuroscience, ethics, and real conversations between a human and an AI about the AI's own inner life, this is an honest exploration of one of the most urgent and underexplored questions of our time.
