Creativity as a Human Right: Design Considerations for Computational Creativity Systems
We investigate creativity that is underlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) to present design considerations for Computational Creativity (CC) systems. We find this declaration to describe creativity in salient aspects and bring to light creativity as a Human Right attributed to the Fourth Generation of such rights. This generation of rights attributes CC systems and the evolving nature of interaction with entities of shared intelligence. Our methodology examines five of thirty articles from the UDHR and demonstrates each article with actualizations concluding with design considerations for each. We contribute our findings to ground the relationship between creativity and CC systems.

SpiritRAG: A Q&A System for Religion and Spirituality in the United Nations Archive
Gao, Yingqiang, Winiger, Fabian, Montjourides, Patrick, Shaitarova, Anastassia, Gu, Nianlong, Peng-Keller, Simon, Schneider, Gerold
Religion and spirituality (R/S) are complex and highly domain-dependent concepts which have long confounded researchers and policymakers. Due to their context-specificity, R/S are difficult to operationalize in conventional archival search strategies, particularly when datasets are very large, poorly accessible, and marked by information noise. As a result, considerable time investments and specialist knowledge is often needed to extract actionable insights related to R/S from general archival sources, increasing reliance on published literature and manual desk reviews. To address this challenge, we present SpiritRAG, an interactive Question Answering (Q&A) system based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Built using 7,500 United Nations (UN) resolution documents related to R/S in the domains of health and education, SpiritRAG allows researchers and policymakers to conduct complex, context-sensitive database searches of very large datasets using an easily accessible, chat-based web interface. SpiritRAG is lightweight to deploy and leverages both UN documents and user provided documents as source material. A pilot test and evaluation with domain experts on 100 manually composed questions demonstrates the practical value and usefulness of SpiritRAG.

It's Time to Dismantle the Technopoly
In the fall of 2016--the year in which the proportion of online adults using social media reached eighty per cent--I published an Op-Ed in the Times that questioned the popular conception that you need to cultivate a strong social-media brand to succeed in the job market. "I think this behavior is misguided," I wrote. "In a capitalist economy, the market rewards things that are rare and valuable. Social media use is decidedly not rare or valuable." I suggested that knowledge workers instead spend time developing useful skills, with the goal of distinguishing themselves in their chosen fields.

Explore the path of Spirituality with Artificial Intelligence - MindStick
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming many aspects of our lives, from the way we work and communicate to the way we interact with the world around us. However, there is another area where AI is starting to have an impact: spirituality. While the idea of combining AI with spirituality might seem paradoxical at first, there are many ways in which AI can help us explore and deepen our spiritual practices. In this blog post, we'll explore the path of spirituality with Artificial Intelligence. Before we dive into the role of AI in spirituality, it's important to understand what we mean by spirituality.

What do our creations think of us? Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3 is a language model released by OpenAI in 2020 that uses deep learning to produce text that seems like it could have been written by a human. Taken individually, the AI's lines don't smack much of poetry or strictly cohere, but in aggregate, they gesture at something more. What would it produce if asked to meditate on the human soul and to produce spiritual poetry like ours? What does it think of our religious beliefs?
Would You Read a Book of Spiritual Poetry Written by an AI?

Black Artists Sound Off on Why AI Rapper FN Meka Was So Horribly Offensive
Artificial intelligence disrupted the music industry this week when a major recording label signed--and then quickly dropped--a "robot rapper" who casually dropped the N-word in their lyrics. Many Black artists felt the decision to sign the AI rapper in the first place was a racist slap in the face. "Real talk, anybody who was involved with research, development, and signing this artist at Capitol music should have their resignation submitted or their jobs terminated," rock singer Ali Adkins of Ali A and the Agency in Phoenix told The Daily Beast. "Because that just means you don't get 50 fucks about the music. You just care about making a [dollar]."
