Book Description
“The Ascenti-AI Project” explores the question:How might professionals in the creative arts collaborate with AI programs to discover new tools and techniques for their work? The overall project encompasses a book, Ascenti:Humans Opening to AI, a dedicated website at ascenti-project.com, a two-day symposium, and "The Ascenti Exhibition of Original Human and AI Art." The Ascenti book features a lineup of creatives who specialize in visual art, writing (prose, poetry, and playwriting), animation, audiobook performance, sound design, and videogames. They experiment with AI by making original works within their respective artistic mediums, inspiring an AI program(s) to generate works based on prompts derived from their original creations, and then evaluate the AI-generated output. Then they interpret AI’s potential to enhance their original works or ways AI helps them overcome visual or other challenges. Alternatively, the creatives might express downsides of AI.
