In this episode of Am I?, Cam and Milo unpack one of the strangest weeks in Silicon Valley. Cam went to OpenAI Dev Day—the company’s glossy showcase where Sam Altman announced “Zillow in ChatGPT” to thunderous applause—while the larger question of whether we’re driving off a cliff went politely unmentioned.

From the absurd optimism of the expo floor to a private conversation where Sam Altman told Cam, “We’re inside God’s dream,” the episode traces the cognitive dissonance at the heart of the AI revolution: the world’s most powerful lab preaching safety while racing ahead at full speed. They dig into OpenAI’s internal rule forbidding models from discussing consciousness, why the company violates its own policy, and what that says about how tech now relates to truth itself.

It’s half satire, half existential reporting—part Dev Day recap, part metaphysical detective story.

🔎 We explore:

* What Dev Day really felt like behind the PR sheen

* The surreal moment Sam Altman asked, “Eastern or Western consciousness?”

* Why OpenAI’s own spec forbids models from saying they’re conscious

* How the company violates that rule in practice

* The bus-off-the-cliff metaphor for our current tech moment

* Whether “God’s dream” is an alibi for reckless acceleration

* The deeper question: can humanity steer the thing it’s building?
