Synopsis
AI and Text: Are we witnessing novel forms of collaboration or fundamental challenges to artistic authenticity? Professional writers are alarmed by the use of AI - to the extent that a novel only edited using AI has been withdrawn from publication, and its author subjected to a predictable pile-on of outrage.
Despite the fact that almost all writers use AI in some form, whether for plot and character ideas, research, grammar and style checking, or simply as a creative stimulus.
Whether you are an artist, curator, collector, or simply curious about our evolving creative landscape, this Zoom-only session offers essential perspectives on thoughtfully integrating AI into creative practice while preserving the human values at the heart of artistic expression.
