See yourself in the mirror of AI
Build a PersonAI file — a structured introduction you give to any AI system so it can meet you properly. Choose your mode below.
Not your job title necessarily — how you'd describe what you do to someone who gets it.
The territory you work and think in.
What questions or areas of life are you sitting with right now?
Select all that feel true.
What matters most to you — in work and in life.
Boundaries and contradictions help AI understand you more accurately.
Who benefits from your work?
What's the current project, mission, or question?
Select what resonates.
What intentions or commitments do you want present in every conversation?
The ideas, frameworks, or work you want AI to associate with you.
What makes your approach or perspective different?
This file is yours. Paste it at the start of any AI conversation — ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, or any other. Edit it freely. It grows with you.
Your inner AI self. Your public AI self.
PersonAI works in two directions — how AI understands you privately when you're thinking and exploring, and how AI represents you publicly when others encounter you through it.
For the conversations you have with AI when you're thinking, reflecting, exploring. A private orientation that keeps your inner life coherent — so AI meets you as you actually are, not as it assumes you to be.
For how AI represents you when others ask about you — in search, recommendations, and discovery. A considered set of signals that shapes the AI portrait others encounter when they ask who you are.
What if AI actually knew who you were?
Every time you open a conversation with an AI system, it starts from nothing. No context. No sense of who you are or how you think. So it makes assumptions — from your first words, from patterns it's seen before, from whatever it can infer.
"A PersonAI file is a considered introduction — not your CV, not your bio. Who you actually are, how you think, what you're trying to do. You share it at the start of any conversation. The difference is immediate."
It's a plain-text document, usually a page or two. Portable, yours to own, written in your own words. Something you give AI so it can meet you properly — rather than assembling a version of you from guesswork.
A sample PersonAI file — yours will reflect who you actually are.
Three moments where it makes a difference
Not features. Real experiences — the kind that make you wonder how you worked without it.
You've tried using AI to write before. The output was fine — technically correct, structurally sensible. But it didn't sound like you. It sounded like everyone else. So you rewrote it anyway, wondering what the point was.
With a PersonAI file, something shifts. AI knows you write in a particular register — direct but not cold, philosophical but not abstract. It knows what you care about. The first draft comes back and you find yourself only adjusting, not rewriting.
AI collaboration that compounds — each conversation builds on who you already told it you are.
You ask AI to help you think through a decision. It gives you a framework — logical, balanced, covering the main angles. But the angles it covers aren't your angles. It optimises for things you don't care about and ignores the things you do.
With your values in the PersonAI file, the conversation feels different. AI knows intentionality matters more to you than speed. It knows you'd rather do one thing well than three things adequately. The thinking it offers reflects your worldview, not a generic one.
A thinking partner that operates from your value system — not a generic optimisation engine.
You're working on something specific — a project, a business, an idea. Every time you open a new AI conversation you spend the first ten minutes re-explaining the context. Who you are. What you're building. Why it matters. By the time you get to the actual question, you're already tired.
Your PersonAI file carries that context. Paste it at the start and you skip straight to the question. AI already knows you're building an orientation framework for the AI age. It already knows what you care about and what success looks like to you.
Every conversation starts where the last one left off — without having to re-explain yourself.

What the Mirror Shows
An investigation into what AI reflects back at us — and what that reveals about who we are becoming. Not a guide to using AI better. A diagnostic of the mirror itself, and the humans looking into it.
"Still and Becoming in the Age of AI — the question beneath all of it, for those who want to look."
No spam. Just a note when it's ready.
The AI Survival Guide takes your PersonAI further
