Workshop 2: Who's the Author - Theoretical and Ethical Considerations for professional communicators

  • Heft Studio Level 2, 145 Cuba Street Wellington, Wellington Region, 6011 New Zealand (map)

Is a piece of writing still yours if an AI helped shape its form? Where does your creativity end and the machine's begin?

Lawrence Green and Emily Broadmore, founder of Heft Communications and the Wellington Writers Studio, invite you to a thought-provoking discussion exploring the philosophical and ethical dimensions of AI in writing. This workshop is applicable to both professional writers and creative writers.

Emily's experience as the founder of Heft Communications brings valuable perspective on maintaining literary integrity in an increasingly AI-influenced landscape, complemented by Lawrence's expertise in leadership specialising in AI applications.

We'll examine:

  • Historical perspectives on authorship and how AI disrupts traditional concepts

  • Ethical frameworks for considering AI-assisted writing

  • Questions of originality, authenticity, and creative ownership

  • The implications for comms, publishing, academia, and literary communities

This lunch time workshop is a theoretical exploration with practical consideration of real-world scenarios writers face today. Come with your lunch, a willingness to learn and questions about navigating this rapidly evolving landscape.

These workshops are part of Heft Communications and the Wellington Writers Studio's commitment to exploring how emerging technologies can support exceptional storytelling while preserving the authentic human voice that lies at the heart of meaningful writing.
