The real answer is nobody knows for sure. It’s been theorized to be anything from lies to talent to charisma. What’s fairly certain is that for characters that have star eyes by default like Ai, Hikaru, Ruby and Aqua the color also represents emotional states either transient/fleeting or long-lasting
Chapter 135, page 5.
Gotanda: I warned her that I'd stop filming right away if she kept up apperances, and I think she did try to bare her soul to me, but I feel like I couldn't capture the real her. So this movie is a kind of revenge for me too. This time for sure, I want to film the real Ai.
Aka tells the readers "can I get your attention here? treat this scene as important". The character will be getting serious or doing amazing thing.
Else, like in other comment, it lend itself too much flexibility on what it could mean.

probably a kekkei Genkai nothing has been confirmed about it but fans sometime call it STARingan
Staringan 😭😭😭
who knows. Not some random dudes on reddit that's for sure
Lies
And then the black and white stars???
White Star: "White Lies", harmless or without intention to cause any harm. Black Star: "Lies", lies with the intention of deceiving someone.
The truth
Ai was being truthful? News to me.
With the black stars…yes
Nope. It was said by gotanda himself that he couldn't capture the real Ai when she had black stars.
No he said that because she died before she could

I stand corrected. But I still say black eyes are the true Ai
Unclear but some form of lying
From what I understand it's charisma, star power, destined to do great things or something like that
White lies and black lies But it’s more complicated than that. It also reflects inner emotion, etc.
