My latest book is now out (in the UK - Americans/e-book readers will need to wait until November)! 🎉
_Digital Storytelling: An Introduction_ is my effort to historicise and expand the field. I'd love to chat with y'all about it.

In this new #OnlineFirst article, Payal Arora & @simone_natale argue that global #AI debates must move beyond abstract ethics. By situating AI in everyday cultural contexts, they spotlight how global-local dynamics shape our interactions with tech.

Opening of my book "Deceitful Media: AI and Social Life after the Turing Test" (Oxford University Press 2021). Four years later, it looks less imaginative as science fiction, but fortunately there's still the crime story angle...

How can we make sense of the thin lines between deception and authenticity when communication is increasingly automated and it is hard to distinguish between messages created by AI and those made by humans?

Has generative AI cracked the Turing Test?
But what if this is not the right question to ask at this moment?
What if the real message of the Turing Test is not about machines, but about ourselves as humans?

On ♀️@Cyborg_Goddess♀️ S3, E5 @simone_natale joins @JJFPhD to discuss his research into the legacy of the Turing Test & how the test for artificial intelligence has influenced subsequent AI research:

So happy to see this out! A freshly-baked contribution to our special issue (@ludovico_rella) on weak and strong AI narratives by @PaoloBory, @simone_natale and @ckatzenbach
Happy to share this new OA paper with the greats @simone_natale and @ckatzenbach on weak & strong AI narratives for AI & Society. We propose a framework to address & normalise narratives around AI, placing #weakAI firmly at the center of public debates.
