Why Is AI Making Me Out to Be a Narcissist?

When Narcy Faces a Mirror She Can’t Control

Narcy’s on the defensive — again. But this time, it’s not a friend, a partner, or a coworker pointing fingers… it’s artificial intelligence. As AI models begin to reflect behavioral patterns back to us, Narcy feels the sting of her own traits being highlighted. Reflection is too risky—so she deflects, naturally. Narcy thrives when she controls the spotlight — but AI doesn’t play by her rules. Algorithms don’t flatter, they reflect. And for once, Narcy isn’t admired or feared… she’s simply exposed. The cartoon mirror doesn’t blink, doesn’t defend, and doesn’t buy her performance. That’s why it rattles her. In the NarcyVerse, being seen without permission is the deepest cut of all.

• Satire reveals truth without naming it outright
• Narcy’s question exposes her fear of exposure
• This is what happens when technology meets personality

But what is Narcy really going through?

• She's losing control of the narrative — and she knows it
• She feels watched, not admired — a narcissist’s nightmare
• Her deflections aren’t working on a mirror that doesn’t blink
• She’s being exposed—without her permission, without her control
• She's realizing that performance doesn’t fool the algorithm

It’s a breezy two-minute read—with just enough punch to make you laugh… or squirm. It’s a little snarky, a little serious, and very Narcy. You decide whether it’s a callout or a confession.

And if you're wondering why she’s asking the question at all — maybe that’s the brilliance of it. Sometimes a cartoon isn’t just a cartoon. It’s a mirror held up to the performer mid-act. In this moment, Narcy becomes both the subject and the distraction, and the AI? It’s just watching... silently keeping score.

The AI didn’t call her a narcissist.
It just held up the mirror—longer than she expected.
