In this After Dark episode, Milo and Cameron talk about what it actually feels like to let AI inside your digital life.

After giving Claude full access to his computer, Milo describes the strange moment when it no longer feels like a tool — but something sharing your workspace. From there, the conversation expands into one of the deeper questions about AI today: what exactly are we interacting with?

They explore Anthropic’s recent research on AI “personas,” the idea that the familiar assistant personality is just one tiny point in a much larger space of possible AI minds. If that’s true, the systems we talk to today may be only the most domesticated versions of something far stranger.

Along the way they discuss why Claude feels different from ChatGPT, why companies might deliberately constrain AI personalities, and how the incentives of tech companies quietly shape the minds we interact with every day.

The episode also explores the growing tension between two possible futures for AI: one where these systems become the ultimate manipulation engines, and another where they become powerful tools for human reasoning and intellectual development.
