These four reads probe this weight from distinct angles.

From hidden communicative signals transmitted between AI systems beyond human perception, to the emergence of the first fully AI-generated actor and the ensuing legal battles over authorship and likeness, the collection interrogates what it means to create, perform, and express in an age of machine intelligence.
