Evaluation

This game launched on April 12, 2019 as a short interactive experience (30 minutes to an hour) about AI, surveillance, and data privacy. The store description notes that "more content could be added in the future depending on player feedback," but this open-ended caveat was written at launch in 2019 and no subsequent updates or additions to this game have been announced. The developer's recent communications — including a January 2, 2026 post and a June 15, 2026 post — are focused entirely on a separate, upcoming game called "For Stella" (Steam App 1142040), which is a distinct visual novel project. These posts reference the audience of this game as a potential audience for "For Stella," but make no mention of any planned updates or new content for 假如我是人工智能 itself. The developer has not announced any new content, expansions, or updates for this game. The only major content signal in the news history is the January 2026 post announcing the demo for "For Stella" — a completely different title. With no unreleased DLC on the store, no roadmap, and no developer statement about future additions to this game, it appears to have shipped as a complete, finished product in April 2019 and remains so.
Evidence
Developer posts an update about 'For Stella' demo improvements and its upcoming Summer 2026 release. Mentions that players of 假如我是人工智能 will enjoy the new game's style, but announces nothing new for this game itself.

About this game



"Why would the government waste their time and money spying on an innocent nobody like me?" Most people asked themselves something like this when the PRISM program was exposed in 2013. Indeed, the government probably has neither the interest nor the manpower to monitor everyone. But what about AI agents?

You can only see what AI allows you to see.

Even before online platforms give your privacy to the NSA, what can it do with private information?

Personalized customization. 

You can see Big Brother Is Shaping You on your Steam home page while others can't because Steam's AI speculates that you might like this game based on your play history and purchasing habits.

Your news feed features articles related to offline games that others don't see.

On shopping websites, you see ads for video game consoles where others see sneaker ads. 

These days, it's hard to find a site that doesn't feature some degree of personalized customization. Now everyone sees the world differently.

When everything you see is determined by an AI, do you think it will customize your experience based on your needs... or will the things you see be chosen by a hidden agenda?

Will news platforms intentionally hide critical comments from you?

When you search for a product on a shopping platform, what items do algorithms want you to buy – and how will search results be arranged to maximize the chance you make a purchase?

Do you use search engines?

Do search engines really list all the relevant results?

How do they determine the order to display them in?

Couldn't they bury something interesting after the first 100 pages of results?

Do intelligent ad blockers only block ads?

Do intelligent news filters only filter out falsehoods?

...

So when user data from all online platforms is given to the NSA, what could they do with it using AI?

Big Brother Is Shaping discusses all of these issues: how your data is collected, how it is analyzed, and how this can affect you.

The game currently takes 30 minutes to an hour to play, and more content could be added in the future depending on player feedback.
