Generative AI (GenAI) is both promising and challenging in supporting people with disabilities (PwDs) in creating stories about disability. GenAI can reduce barriers to media production and inspire the creativity of PwDs, but it may also introduce biases and imperfections that hinder its adoption for personal expression. In this research, we examine how nine PwD from a disability advocacy group used GenAI to create videos sharing their disability experiences. Grounded in digital storytelling theory, we explore the motivations, expression, and sharing of PwD-created GenAI story videos. We conclude with a framework of momentous depiction, which highlights four core affordances of GenAI that either facilitate or require improvements to better support disability storytelling: non-capturable depiction, identity concealment and representation, contextual realism and consistency, and emotional articulation. Based on this framework, we further discuss design implications for GenAI in relation to story completion, media formats, and corrective mechanisms.
翻译:生成式人工智能(GenAI)在支持残障人士创作残障主题故事方面既充满前景又面临挑战。GenAI能够降低媒体制作门槛并激发残障人士的创造力,但也可能引入偏见与缺陷,阻碍其用于个人表达。本研究考察了某残障倡导组织中九位残障人士如何运用GenAI制作分享其残障经历的视频。基于数字叙事理论,我们探讨了残障人士创作生成式AI故事视频的动机、表达方式与传播实践。最终提出关键描绘框架,该框架揭示了GenAI在支持残障叙事时具备促进或需改进的四大核心功能:不可捕捉场景描绘、身份隐匿与表征、情境真实性与连贯性、情感表达。基于此框架,我们进一步探讨了GenAI在故事完整性、媒体格式及纠错机制方面的设计启示。
