Imagined lives: formal implications for creative writing in the age of AI.
When creative writing is discussed in the context of AI, the discussion is often about copyright, authorship, writers' livelihood, and generating content; but creative writing, which has always modelled and evoked varying visions of consciousness in fictional and nonfictional forms, could both contr...

Through analysing two different contemporary dramatisations of AI, the grounded sci-fi novella The Lifecycle of Software Objects by Ted Chiang and the experimental short story 'According to Alice' by Sheila Heti, this paper identifies issues underpinning discussions of creative writing and AI beyond 'what is told' and suggests implications for how we might conceive of creative writing elements like voicing, focalisation, materiality or substrate, and form – and particularly their interdependence. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of New Writing: The International Journal for the Practice & Theory of Creative Writing is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
