Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in Higher Education

Featuring contributions from leading researchers, theorists, and artists in artificial intelligence, generative art, creative computing, music composition, and cybernetics, the book examines the relationship between computation and creativity from both analytic and practical perspectives. The book tackles critical philosophical questions and discusses major issues, illustrating how computers are fundamentally changing what we can imagine and create, and how we might shape the creativity of the future.

Anxiety about non-human intelligent machines is a longstanding theme of cultural production and consumption. Kingwell plumbs the depths of cultural and political meaning in the apparent transition to posthuman life. Our immersion in technology, now comprehensive to the point of invisibility, has altered forever what it means to be alive. The politics of posthumanism flow directly from our own situation, at once dependent on technology and afraid of its effects on current and future experiences.

Living with Robots recounts a foundational shift in the field of robotics, from artificial intelligence to artificial empathy, and foreshadows an inflection point in human evolution. Today's robots engage with human beings in socially meaningful ways, as therapists, trainers, mediators, caregivers, and companions. Social robotics is grounded in artificial intelligence, but the field's most probing questions explore the nature of the very real human emotions that social robots are designed to emulate.
