AI & Technology Ethics
→From deepfakes to algorithmic bias, navigate the ethical challenges of a world where technology moves faster than our ability to understand its consequences. You'll navigate four escalating scenarios — from the deepfake dilemma to the ethical builder — practicing the decisions that matter most when the pressure is real and the stakes are personal. This isn't theory. It's practice for the moments that define how this chapter of your life unfolds.

More scenarios in this quest
A video surfaces of someone you know saying something terrible — except something about the lighting feels wrong. You can't tell if it's real, and neither can anyone else sharing it.
You dig deeper and the evidence is contradictory. The video looks authentic but the metadata is suspicious. You're standing at the intersection of truth and technology — and the ground is shifting.
The truth finally surfaces but the damage is done. You're left navigating a world where seeing is no longer believing — and building the critical thinking muscles that might be your only defense.
