MIRROR means being aware of how other people, and increasingly AI systems, see and use your information. What you share shapes the picture others build of you, and shapes what algorithms show you in return.
What it means
MIRROR covers self-awareness in a connected world: how your data feeds recommendation systems, how AI can imitate or profile you, and how the image you project online reflects back at you.
Why it matters
You are not just watching the internet; the internet is watching you. Algorithms decide what you see based on what you do, and AI tools can now copy voices and faces. Understanding MIRROR helps you stay in control of your own image and not be quietly shaped by systems you cannot see.
How to practise MIRROR
- Remember that platforms learn from everything you do.
- Be aware AI can imitate voices, faces and writing.
- Question why you are being shown a particular thing.
- Verify identity through a second channel when money or secrets are involved.
The same idea, two lives
Practise it in a game: AI Mirror (Young Track), AI or Real? (Everyone Track).
