HACKED! – AI Safety & AI Literacy Game / Simulation (Print & Play)

A hands-on, fully turn-key week of lessons or a professional development session on AI simulation that helps students and educators understand how AI systems actually behave.

Instead of explaining AI with slides or warnings, this interactive simulation lets participants experience how incentives, shortcuts, bias, and energy use shape AI output.

Participants see how:

• Speed can override accuracy
• Confident language can hide weak information
• Corporate updates can change system behavior
• AI image and video generation uses real electricity
• Small choices affect long-term results

After playing, participants are better able to:

• Recognize inaccurate or biased AI output
• Use AI tools more safely and responsibly
• Understand when human judgment should lead
• Reduce over-reliance and unnecessary fear
• Think critically about energy use and environmental impact
