I wonder how this applies to humans now that photographs are so common.
At a young age we might not recognize ourselves, but anymore, especially with social media, we're constantly surrounded by pictures of ourselves in different situations (or even something as simple as profile pictures on nearly any website). A young child probably isn't using these but I wonder if constantly seeing oneself in images all the time reduces the proof that this is a form a 'higher' thinking as suggested in the introduction of this article and more of a learned thing due to the immersion with this.
It's not a mirror per se so it's not a live look at you, but nonetheless it's still you that you're seeing.
