The Digital Mirror exposes the hidden ways AI systems discriminate across age, ethnicity, disability, and gender, often without us even realising it. Drawing on peer-reviewed research, case studies, and rigorous academic analysis across multiple disciplines, this groundbreaking investigation reveals how artificial intelligence is transforming our most fundamental sense of self. From people willing to sacrifice years of their lives for algorithmic perfection to elderly individuals becoming psychologically dependent on AI companions, from cosmetic surgeons treating 'Snapchat dysmorphia' to the psychological effects of constant digital enhancement, this book documents the profound human costs of our AI-enhanced world. Informed by Foucauldian theory, feminist technology studies, and extensive academic research, this book examines how AI beauty technologies function as mechanisms of social control, potentially turning human insecurity into commercial engagement.
