MA in Publishing
In recent years, the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been making headlines and it is undeniable that its impact will continue to grow. Creative industries, such as publishing, are having to grapple with the changing literary landscape as a result of AI being used to generate content.
Crossroads presents an experimental collection of short stories that engage with the creative potential of generative AI systems and push the boundaries of both human authorship and AI assistance. Each piece in its uniqueness explores how different generative AI processes can be used, not to simply generate the content itself, but to encourage broader creative thought and an openness to divergent writing styles. As such, this is not simply an ‘AI-assisted’ anthology.
Five authors explore the potential of generative AI to be an intelligent writing tool through a series of experimental writing tasks culminating in a final short story. These tasks are published alongside these final pieces to reflect each stage of conception, placing transparency as central to this anthology.
Crossroads is a unique anthology where the process is just as important as the prose, where author meets algorithm and the result is surreal, fascinating, and thought-provoking.
