Art Intelligence How Generative AI Relates to Human Art-Making
"What impact will generative AI have on how we create art and how we understand what art is for? How will it affect the role of the artist in the future and the conditions under which artists will work? Jan Svenungsson tackles these questions, investigating what AI might do for art, and what it might change, circling the core issue of what it is in human art-making that cannot be replaced."
A treatise by Jan Svenungsson. Published by transcript Verlag, Bielefeld, in July 2024.
