How to use these cards
How to use these cards
Each card has a front (dark, navy) and a back (light, cream). Print on thick paper and cut along the card edges for best results. Or simply read them on screen - they work digitally too.
There's no right order. Any card makes a great conversation starter. Insight cards share a fact. Scenario cards pose a situation. Choice cards ask you to pick. Challenge and Wildcard cards involve doing something together.
One person reads the card title and content to the table. Give everyone a moment to think before jumping in. There are no right answers - the conversation is the point.
The back of each card has 2–3 discussion questions. Work through them together. Let everyone speak. The best conversations happen when you challenge each other's answers.
The irony is intentional. These cards work best with screens away. One hour, one deck, one family. That's the whole product.

Pathfinder
The Algorithmic Mirror
Your feeds are built from your past clicks, likes and pauses.
AI is constantly guessing what 'future you' will want.
Insight · 01
- If your feed is a "mirror," what parts of you is it reflecting - and what is it ignoring?
- What one small change to who you follow might change what the AI
shows you?
- Should algorithms have to tell you what they're optimising for?
Pathfinder
The Endless Scroll
You sit down to watch one 10-minute video.
An hour later, you're still scrolling. The recommendations feel "too
good" at keeping you hooked.
Scenario · 02
- What tricks do you think the recommendation AI is using to keep
you watching?
- What personal rule could you set so AI works for you, not the other
way around?
- As a family, what could you do together to make screen time more intentional?
Pathfinder
Who Knows You Best?
Right now, who understands you better?
A. Your best friend
B. Your favourite app's algorithm
C. Your future self in 5 years
CHOICE · 03
- Why did you choose that option? What does that say about what you value most?
- What does each one not know about you that might matter?
- Should AI systems be allowed to know you this well? Why or why not?
Pathfinder
AI in Games and Esports
Game AI controls enemies, teammates, difficulty levels and even loot
drops.
Some games now use AI to adapt to your play style.
Scenario · 07
- When does smart game AI make a game more fun, and when does it make it more addictive or unfair?
- If you could redesign one game you love using AI, what would you change?
- Should games have to explain what their AI is doing behind the scenes?
Pathfinder
The AI-Written Essay
You have an essay due tomorrow. A friend shows you an AI tool that
writes a full answer in seconds.
It sounds good. It even passes a quick plagiarism check.
Scenario · 13
- What are the short-term pros of using it exactly as it is?
- What could the long-term costs be for your skills, confidence and trust with teachers?
- Design a personal AI use rule for schoolwork that keeps the learning truly yours.
Pathfinder
Who's Responsible?
An AI recommendation suggests harmful content to a teen.
Who holds the most responsibility?
A. The company that built the AI
B. The people who post the content
C. The teen and their family
D. Governments/regulators
Choice · 27
- Rank these from "most" to "least" responsible and explain why.
- If you could change one thing about how these systems are run, what would it be?
Pathfinder
Deepfake Dilemma
AI can now create videos and audio that look and sound real, even
When the person never said or did those things.
Insight · 30
- How would you check if a shocking video you see is real or AI-made?
- What's more dangerous: deepfakes used for "jokes," or for politics and bullying? Why?
- Should making or sharing harmful deepfakes have legal consequences? What kind?
Pathfinder
Jobs Reshaped, Not Replaced
Most jobs won't simply disappear - they'll change.
Routine tasks are more likely to be done by AI, while messy human
tasks stay with humans.
Insight · 37
- Think of a job you're curious about. Which tasks might AI do, and which will still need a human?
- Does that make the job more or less appealing to you?
Pathfinder
Human Skills AI Can't Fake
AI can copy patterns, but it doesn't actually care.
Empathy, courage, humour, and real-world judgement are still deeply
Insight · 40
- How can you spot AI-generated fake content?
- What's your responsibility when sharing information online?
- How do you verify what's real in the age of AI?
Pathfinder
One-Year Experiment
Pick a one-year experiment: how will you use AI to grow, learn, or create something meaningful - not just scroll?
Wildcard · 50
- Each person chooses one area (school, health, creativity, community, career exploration).
- Decide how AI will support that goal and what counts as "success" after a year.
- Write down your experiments, seal them in an envelope, and set a reminder to open it together next year.
