Item Type: Thesis
Creators: Balasubramani, Shipra
Abstract:

Through prototyping and experimentation, this thesis investigates the affordances of tangible AI objects as user interfaces to enhance user engagement in the context of a narrative environment. Leveraging AI/ML tools, the objective of the research is to investigate how generative AI can be applied in unconventional contexts, allowing users to co-create with Generative AI models, unfolding narratives in real-time. The envisioned outcome as an interactive installation encourages users to explore, experiment, control and co-create along with generative AI models. This hands-on approach through an installation merging generative storytelling and physical-digital artefacts, aspires to serve as a bridge between the apprehensions surrounding AI and its meaningful integration, shifting the discourse to informed curiosity. The project invites users to be a part of the conversation, encourages critical engagement, and allows users to assess AI’s potential within their own realms.
