Electronic literature and the use of artificial intelligence

Abstract

This chapter will furnish a comprehensive overview of electronic literature and the integration of Artificial Intelligence in its genesis. An analysis of these emergent literary farms will be undertaken by elucidating the role of Al and examining its potential influence on literature. The study will further contemplate the ethical considerations. The definition of electronic literature will be expounded to achieve these objectives, and its principal characteristics will be delineated. Furthermore, two authors will be introduced alongside a selected work of each, exemplifying the application of artificial intelligence in digital literature, and the ethical discussion that the use of Al is provoking among artists and academics will be continued.
