Centaur Art
Generative AI is transforming the landscape of numerous industries, and the creative fields are no exception. As the figurative arts become a focal point in the ongoing debate, this book explores hybrid and centauric intelligence-an integration of human and artificial intelligence. Through parallel and complementary directions, it investigates the general concept of this hybrid intelligence and its specific application in the artistic realm, highlighting the unprecedented creativity and innovation that can emerge from this synergy. Additionally, it addresses the economic tensions and legal disputes, particularly around copyright, that arise from the impact of new technologies in the creative sector. The result is a comprehensive overview of the hybridization paradigm by analyzing the operational and creative methods of artists and creators who have embraced generative AI. The author examines the implications of the recent developments, offering readers an understanding of how AI can support human creativity rather than replace it. Thus, a compelling vision of the future unfolds, one in which artists and AI collaborate, pushing the boundaries of what is artistically achievable. Whether you are a seasoned professional looking to incorporate AI into your creative process or a curious reader intrigued by the convergence of art and technology, the book will provide valuable insights and inspire you to explore the fascinating intersection of human creativity and artificial intelligence and the future it heralds for the art world.
AI and You
"AI & You: Will Humanity Survive the Future We're Building" explores the pervasive impact of artificial intelligence on daily life, work, and society. Through a blend of humor and insightful analysis, the book examines the evolution of AI, its integration into various sectors, and the myths surrounding its capabilities. It delves into the ethical dilemmas, cultural shifts, and psychological effects of living with intelligent machines, emphasizing the importance of finding balance and maintaining our humanity in an AI-driven world. The narrative encourages readers to embrace AI as a partner, while addressing concerns about job displacement and dependency. Ultimately, the book aims to foster a deeper understanding of AI's role in shaping our future and the need for thoughtful coexistence with technology.
Output
An anthology of seven decades of English-language outputs from computer generation systems, chronicling the vast history of machine-written texts created long before ChatGPT. The discussion of computer-generated text has recently reached a fever pitch but largely omits the long history of work in this area--text generation, as it happens, was not invented yesterday in Silicon Valley. This anthology, Output, thoughtfully selected, introduced, and edited by Lillian-Yvonne Bertram and Nick Montfort, aims to correct that omission by gathering seven decades of English-language texts produced by generation systems and software. The outputs span many different types of creative writing and include text generated by research systems, along with reports and utilitarian texts, representing many general advances and experiments in text generation. Output is first and foremost a collection of outputs to be encountered by readers. In addition to an overall introduction, each of the excerpts is introduced individually and organized by fine-grain genre including conversations, humor, letters, poetry, prose, and sentences. Bibliographic references allow readers to learn more about outputs and systems that intrigue them. Although Output could serve as a reference book, it is designed to be readable and to be read. Purposefully excluded are human-computer collaborations that were conceptually defined but not implemented as a computer system. Copublished by Counterpath Press

The Art of Thinking in a Digital World
Luc de Brabandere has had three careers in his fifty years of professional life. He started out as a computer engineer, before becoming a consultant in creativity, and today he is a corporate philosopher. This journey has led him to investigate successively the three modes of thinking that are permanently articulated within us: logical thinking, creative thinking and critical thinking. As a talented popularizer, he puts forward an ambitious yet accessible summary of the main principles that govern these three modes of thinking. The book is richly illustrated and places thinking in an historical perspective that allows us to better understand how informational technology in general, and ChatGPT and other artificial intelligences in particular, are influencing our mental models. In the first part of this book, thinking is presented as a game whose rules need to be understood in order to be able to play the game better. A machine can't be creative or responsible. So the more machines there are, the more thinking we'll need to do!

Extended Reality Solutions to Support Older Adults
This book explores one way in which recent hardware and software advances have placed humanity on the precipice of a significant shift in how technology can shape our interactions with the world around us: the application of transformative extended reality (XR) technology solutions to support the health, wellness, quality of life, and independence of older adults living with and without cognitive impairments. The book provides an overview of the state-of-the art research on XR-based solutions utilizing virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), challenges that can addressed with these technologies, evidence to date on the efficacy of these solutions, and the nature of these solutions and challenges to their implementation. It explores practical ways XR can be integrated into health and lifestyle maintenance activities for older populations in a diversity of situations through thematic chapters using realistic personas and scenarios. These thematic chapters are organized around the AGE-WELL Challenge Area topics, including staying connected, healthy lifestyles and wellness, mobility, and cognitive health, as well as an additional emphasis on leisure. Other chapters provide guidance on important issues to consider when designing XR-based solutions for older adults, how to evaluate and test XR solutions, the implementation of the user-centered design process, and the book concludes by highlighting unanswered questions and future research directions. This book approaches XR for older adults with and without cognitive impairments from the authors' diverse research backgrounds in psychology, engineering, gerontology, and design. It will be of interest to academic and industry professionals as well as care providers considering the potential for XR interventions now and in the future.
