This week on AM I? we sit down with Will Millership, CEO of PRISM—the world's first non-profit organization dedicated to AI consciousness research.

Will joins us to discuss the current state of AI consciousness research and respond to what may be the most brazen attack on the field to date. Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman recently published an article arguing that AI consciousness research is inherently dangerous and should be abandoned as a legitimate area of inquiry.

Cameron and Will—two leading voices in AI consciousness research—break down why Suleyman's dismissive rhetoric is not only misguided but actually more dangerous than the research he's criticizing. They explore the current landscape of the field, the motivations behind these attacks, and why rigorous scientific investigation into AI consciousness is more crucial than ever.

What happens when advanced AI learns to hack human trust?

In this episode of Am I?, we dive into the uncomfortable truth: AI doesn’t just replicate our words — it can exploit our biases, blind spots, and beliefs. From deepfake-driven misinformation to subtle persuasion, we’re entering a world where it’s harder than ever to tell what’s real.

If AI can outsmart human instincts, how do we keep control? And who’s responsible when it doesn’t?

💬 Watch, debate, and decide.

Because figuring this out might be the most important thing we ever do.
