Sam Harris on Russel Brand Does it matter if we suffer and nobody sees? Do we want a God to see?

No time for a big video again today. Just another shorter one. This interview of Sam Harris by Russell Brand is outstanding preparation for the Sam Harris/Jordan Peterson series of conversations.

For Harris "consciousness is all that matters" but then he speculates about conscious machines and what that would mean for morality, but how does that work for a materialist?
