ABSTRACT

This article analyses the frameworks of co-creation between artists and AI in the context of documentary studies. As a result of emerging AI-focused experiments in documentary and transdisciplinary arts practice, we examine the nature and scope of AI as a collaborator with a focus of documentary projects exhibited and showcased at international documentary festivals. An introduction to emergent creative possibilities is made in light of non-humanism and new materialism while presenting the implications for emerging documentary forms and formats. The AI-as-medium approach allows reflection on documentary genres through the limitations and possibilities of algorithms. With the experiential turn in arts, coding has become a means of producing novel experiences. This has led to the emergence of documentary projects at the intersection of human and machine collaboration. The article addresses how operating within AI has wider consequences for collective intelligence by going beyond the visible and locating itself in the ontological. Scholarship concerns are outlined when exploring algorithms in terms of agency and autonomy and consideration of how they have come to affect our socio-cultural fabric. Coding Reality: Implications of AI for Documentary Media further discusses documentaries which were created in close collaboration with AI.

摘要

本文在纪录片研究的背景下分析了艺术家和人工智能之间的共同创造框架。作为纪录片和跨学科艺术实践中新兴的以人工智能为重点的实验的结果，我们研究了人工智能作为合作者的性质和范围，重点关注在国际纪录片节上展出和展示的纪录片项目。根据非人文主义和新唯物主义对新兴的创造性可能性进行了介绍，同时展示了对新兴纪录片形式和格式的影响。AI-as-medium 方法允许通过算法的限制和可能性对纪录片类型进行反思。随着艺术的体验转向，编码已成为产生新体验的一种手段。这导致了人类和机器协作交叉的纪录片项目的出现。这篇文章通过超越可见并将其自身定位在本体论中，探讨了人工智能内部的操作如何对集体智能产生更广泛的影响。在探索算法的代理和自主性以及考虑它们如何影响我们的社会文化结构时，概述了学术问题。编码现实：人工智能对纪录片媒体的影响进一步讨论了与人工智能密切合作创建的纪录片。
