The Mirror Test|Fiann O’Hagan at Vancouver AI Meetup Feb 2026
Published: · 16:28
Philosopher and researcher Fiann O’Hagan joins the community tonight to unpack what it means for a being to recognize itself, and how ideas from psychology, neuroscience, and phenomenology can inform our understanding of consciousness.
Together, we look at what classic animal mirror tests do and don’t tell us, how humans construct a sense of “I,” and what this might imply for present‑day and future AI systems.
