AI is creating new artistic tools and methods, challenging traditional forms of expression, and raising questions about authorship and originality.
A workshop at Stanford convened filmmakers and researchers to think about the implications of artificial intelligence.

We invited 11 sci-fi filmmakers and AI researchers to Stanford for Stories for the Future, a day-and-a-half experiment in fostering new narratives about AI. Researchers shared perspectives on AI and filmmakers reflected on the challenges of writing AI narratives. Together researcher-writer pairs transformed a research paper into a written scene. The challenge? Each scene had to include an AI manifestation, but could not be about the personhood of AI or AI as a threat. Read the results of this project.

The prevailing public mindset that AI is only a labor-saving tool betrays a lack of understanding of why people create and a lack of imagination of this technology's potential.

Generative AI claims to produce new language and images, but when those ideas are based on copyrighted material, who gets the credit? A new paper from Stanford University looks for answers.

New research shows we can only accurately identify AI writers about 50% of the time. Scholars explain why (and suggest solutions).
