IDEA/CONCEPT:

My deep research into the historical origins and current state of AI's development has set the tone of the project's story from a diverse range of timelines and viewpoint positions: the age of artificial intelligence, where machines are learning and evolving at an unprecedented rate, it's easy to lose sight of the mythological story of Prometheus. What if we think of AI as a modern-day Prometheus, stealing fire in the form of knowledge and wisdom and bestowing it upon us?

By discussing the latest advances in AI technology and the timeless wisdom of the Promethean story, I hope to argue that both have the potential to unleash incredible innovation and creativity, but also pose great risks if not properly understood and utilized.

APPROACH:

In terms of typography system, the transition from stability and singularity to flexibility and diversity mirrors our confrontation with the undeniable sense of the unknown that AI introduces at the tipping point of our era. This typographic evolution not only offers readers new emotional and visual experiences but also deepens their insight into the underlying values of the topic at hand.
‍
The book is structured into four main sections: "Origin," "Singularity," "New Dark Age," and "Exhibition," designed to progressively guide the audience from recognizing and understanding to reflecting on and critiquing the advent of the artificial intelligence era. This organization aims to provide a nuanced journey that culminates in an open-ended conclusion, inviting ongoing contemplation.
