The disruptive potential of generative artificial intelligence in creative fields is clear, but how this will unfold remains uncertain. A key concern is that the problematic distinction between the original and the fake is going to become further blurred. In this study, we draw on a number of philosophical theories on the nature of language to set up a conceptual framework within which one can analyze the status of authorship and originality in the operation of generative AI. We argue that two conceptual orientations, namely deconstruction and genealogy, converge on the claim that authorship should be seen as always already a co-authorship. We use this conceptual framework to interpret the results of a classroom experiment with generative AI in producing screenplay loglines and synopses. Our findings suggest that we must improve students' critical skills to foster responsible self-expression in creative production, thereby unlocking the potential of human – AI interaction.

Üretken yapay zekânın yaratıcı alanlara girişinin yol açacağı potansiyel zorluklar açık olsa da bunların kesin olarak nasıl ve hangi şekillerde vücut bulacağı henüz net değildir. Bu hususta önemli bir endişe, orijinal ve sahte arasındaki çizginin daha belirsiz hale geleceğidir. Bu çalışmada, dilin doğasına ilişkin bir dizi felsefi kuramdan yararlanarak, üretici yapay zekâ söz konusu olduğunda yazarlık ve özgünlük durumunun analiz edilebileceği kavramsal bir çerçeve oluşturuyoruz. İki kavramsal yönelimin, yani yapısöküm ve kökbilimin, yazarlığın her zaman bir ortak yazarlık olarak görülmesi gerektiği iddiasında birleştiğini savunuyoruz. Daha sonra bu kavramsal çerçeveye, senaryo çekici (logline) ve sinopsislerinin yapay zekâ desteğiyle üretildiği bir sınıf deneyinin sonuçlarını yorumlamak için başvuruyoruz. Araştırmamızın bulguları, yaratıcı üretimde kendilerini sorumlu biçimde ifade etmeleri için öğrencilerin eleştirel becerilerini geliştirmemiz gerektiğini göstermektedir. İnsan – yapay zekâ etkileşiminin potansiyelini ancak bu şekilde ortaya çıkarabiliriz.
