"Aren't I?" is a grammatically incorrect and informal expression, but it's still used when you want someone to agree with you about yourself.
Examples:
-"I'm very smart, aren't I?"
-"I'm quick when it comes to running, aren't I?"

Aren't I:
1. Seeking an answer to make sure of something (related to yourself)
2. Can be used in a way that the other person doesn't have to answer
(Usually used to brag)
Examples for 1
- "I'm smart, aren't I?"
- "Aren't I pretty?"
Examples for 2
- "Aren't I so cool?" (In this case, the other person wouldn't answer)
- "I'm amazing, aren't I?"

Aren't can be used to represent
(1) "are not" or
(2) it can represent "am not" JUST IN QUESTIONS. Am I not? --> Aren't I?
For QUESTIONS ONLY this is used in replace of "ain't", the alternative contraction of "am not" which is now considered improper English.
Am I not? is the non contracted form of both "aren't I?" or "ain't I?"
Note that "ain't" is currently considered lower quality English and the way you would imagine a hillbilly or uneducated person to speak. There are a few set expressions that commonly use ain't, but I would advise you to probably avoid using "ain't" if you want to avoid risking sounding uneducated.
Aren't I? is the most commonly used out of those three choices.
