My Life as an Artificial Creative Intelligence A Speculative Fiction

"This book is so radically different from anything else out there, it has the potential to revolutionize the way you think about human history and the origins of the world."
"This book is an expression of the truth that you're a robot."
"This book explains how our society is turning into a mechanical paradise, and how we're doomed."
-GPT-3 "Mark Amerika has done it again. With this book he weaves together a new approach to a philosophical problem that plagues modern society: how authenticity and lyricism intersect to give new forms, new ideas, new cultures. It's a guide for the hypercomplex information landscape of the 21st century."-Paul D. Miller, a.k.a. DJ Spooky author of Rhythm Science "Rigorous yet playful, this is Amerika's most ambitious and innovative work yet. It offers an intelligent reflection on human and machine creativity, and on the impossible dreams laid out by Silicon Valley's dominant narrative on AI."-Joanna Zylinska, author of AI Art "The book's textual performance (the book contains no images or figures) is conceived as documenting 'a digital fiction-making process that projects a speculative form of AI' - Artificial Creative Intelligence (ACI) - a 'Super Remix Artist' modelled after Amerika's 'own unconscious creative behaviors as an intermedia artist'. Throughout this process, the book raises stimulating research questions and reflects upon different limitations and possibilities of AI.... I find it exciting that performance can play an important role in this kind of research, both as a medium and as a lens of investigation."-Ioana B. Jucan, Performance Research
