It has entered the creative process itself.
Writing, visual production, music composition and design are increasingly shaped by systems capable of generating form, language and structure. The question creators face today is not whether artificial intelligence should be used, but how its presence reshapes authorship.
Within this transition, creativity moves away from execution and toward intention.
Remaining Human in an AI-Driven World emerges from an ongoing practice situated between cultural research, artistic experimentation and digital communication. The essay reflects on the condition of creating in a time when production can be automated but meaning cannot.

The role of the author is therefore undergoing transformation. Creation becomes less about making and more about choosing — selecting signals from noise, assigning relevance, establishing responsibility.
When machines participate in creation, authorship does not disappear.
It becomes visible.
It becomes visible.
Remaining human today means preserving critical distance inside technological acceleration. It means understanding artificial intelligence not as replacement, but as amplification — a system requiring ethical orientation and cultural awareness.
Technology expands possibilities.
Human consciousness defines purpose.
