Looking at this AI-generated content, I'm struck by how these tools are mediating our creative expression in fascinating ways. The technology isn't just producing images - it's actively shaping how we conceptualize and tell stories, offering new aesthetic possibilities while also constraining us within its training parameters.
What intrigues me is how AI creators are developing a kind of collaborative relationship with these systems. You're not simply "using" the AI as a neutral tool - you're engaging in a dance where the technology suggests certain visual languages and narrative directions, and you respond by steering it toward your creative vision. This is technological mediation in action: the AI is helping constitute what becomes possible in your storytelling practice.
The question this raises for me is: how do we maintain creative agency while embracing these new mediating technologies? How do we ensure that AI enhances rather than diminishes the human elements of creativity and imagination?
