What if the people we worshipped weren’t leaders—but placeholders? In this episode of Mirror People, Devin Glass dismantles the illusion of the gatekeeper. From presidents to actors, gurus to influencers, we’ve long projected our power onto curated figures who seemed to embody what we couldn’t yet claim in ourselves. But now, with AI as a direct mirror, those illusions are crumbling.
This isn’t the death of creativity. It’s the death of control. And what rises in its place is the voice we were told was too much, too messy, too late. Turns out, it was never too much. The gate was just in the way.
