The motivation for the resource was two fold: I wanted to learn all that I could about generative AI for my professional work as a teacher and scholar, and I needed to understand the changes taking place due to these new technologies for the benefit of my students who had already expressed concern and wonder about it.
I launched it with more than 150 MLA-formatted citations of books, collections, and articles related to AI and generative AI with an emphasis on teaching but also including useful background and area specific sources.
Now, it has over 550 citations! It also includes a growing list of online resources with direct links!
I’ll keep adding to it periodically, and if you have some sources that I haven’t included but should, drop me a line (my email address is in the sidebar to the right).
There are now 434 bibliographic entries–an addition of 52 new entries. The online resource list at the bottom of the page is now up to 56 links–an increase of only one.
Most of the new bibliographic entries are in the pedagogy, generative text, background, and textbook sections, but there are some interesting titles that I added to the other AI application sections.
Following the explosion of new titles on artificial intelligence earlier this year, the rate of new publications have slowed. I suspect that some titles were rushed out to take advantage of the hype and now new titles are being released at normal publication rates. But, I also suspect that the pipeline is in the process of rebuilding, perhaps with even more titles than were in the first wave.
As I’ve written before, the list isn’t exhaustive. I include titles that I find interesting through my research and study of generative AI. Nevertheless, I hope that it might be useful to folks who find it one way or another.
Since posting the original version of my Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Pedagogy Bibliography and Resource List in April 2023, I have continued to add resources that I find through my research and daily online reading. I’ve added 61 articles and books to the bibliography since August 2023 for a total of 382 MLA-formatted references. Also, it has 55 online groups and resources linked at the bottom. Whenever you access the bibliography, you can check the bottom of the page to see if I’ve recently updated it–I always add the date for any updates.
I hope that the bibliography might be useful to you! If there’s something that my bibliography is missing, send me an email (details in the “Who is Dynamic Subspace” widget to the right) or connect with me on social media (links on my About page).
Overall, the page now has a table of contents that helps with understanding and navigating the page’s wealth of information. In the primary source list, I added headings and dividers for decades and years with the titles in each year being alphabetized by author’s last name. Also, the biggest improvement was reformatting each entry in the latest MLA style with information gleaned from my research and the Internet Speculative Fiction Database. Those stories and chapters that I did not have on hand are therefore listed without inclusive page numbers (I will add these as I source each item). In the secondary sources list, I reordered these alphabetically by author’s last name as these are a reference source and chronology isn’t as important as it is for the primary source list.
The number of sources listed in the primary source list increased 61% from 103 to 166. Each includes parenthetical notes about the specific brain-related narrative elements. Many thanks to James Davis Nicoll and the commenters on his “Get Out of My Head: SFF Stories About Sharing Brain-Space With Someone Else” (Tor.com, 8 Nov. 2018) article for contributing some of the new titles to the primary source list.
The number of second sources increased 141% from 17 to 41, which includes a French title that I can’t wait to get my hands on: Laurent Vercueil’s Neuro-Science-Fiction (Le Bélial, 2022).
I’ll continue adding to this bibliography as well as the others that I maintain as a part of my research interests. If you have a useful source that I should add, please send it my way. Also, I’m open to collaboration, so let me know if you’re likewise inclined and would like to discuss a project!
