AI時代的創意寫作
Creative Writing in AI Age
Abstract:
陳楸帆從2017年（也是Transformer架構被發明的年份）開始了與人工智慧的共創寫作實驗，經歷了與李開複合著《AI未來進行式》以及“ChatGPT時刻”之後，他開始更加深入地反思如何以AI工具作為返照自身創作的鏡子，試圖理解創作、語言乃至“何為人類，人類何為”的哥白尼式追問，並借此對身處技術焦慮的人文學科從業者提出自己的解決/解毒之道。
Qiufan Chen started his co-creative writing experiment with artificial intelligence in 2017 (also the year when the Transformer architecture was invented). After co-authoring AI2041: Ten Visions for our future with Dr. Kai-Fu Lee and experiencing the "ChatGPT moment", he began to reflect more deeply on how to use AI tools as a mirror to reflect on his own creation, trying to understand creation, language and even the Copernican questioning of "what is human and where are we". And hereby, he puts forward his own solutions/detoxification methods for humanities practitioners who are in technological anxiety.
