<p>This essay advances the Human–GenAI interaction discourse by framing GenAI-assisted writing as a dynamic, interactional process in which distributed and discursive agency emerges through the ongoing interplay between AI systems and iterative human engagement. While anthropocentric legal frameworks restrict authorship, which this essay explains as a form of agency exclusive to humans, contemporary creative practice increasingly reveals hybrid and distributed forms of agency in which meaning and originality emerge through iterative interaction (intra-action) between both human and non-human agents or actors.

摘要

This essay advances the Human–GenAI interaction discourse by framing GenAI-assisted writing as a dynamic, interactional process in which distributed and discursive agency emerges through the ongoing interplay between AI systems and iterative human engagement. While anthropocentric legal frameworks restrict authorship, which this essay explains as a form of agency exclusive to humans, contemporary creative practice increasingly reveals hybrid and distributed forms of agency in which meaning and originality emerge through iterative interaction (intra-action) between both human and non-human agents or actors. Drawing on posthumanist, ecocritical, and poststructuralist perspectives, this article reframes authorship as a relational concept, an outcome of intra-action rather than a solo human creation, emphasizing co-creation, negotiation, and shared responsibility. It introduces the concept of entangled hybrid authorship as a complementary cultural model: humans remain legally accountable authors, while machines function as non-owning collaborators, producing texts that cannot be reduced to single contributions. This perspective advances debates on originality, creative agency, and academic integrity, offering a framework that bridges legal, philosophical, and practical understandings of writing in the Technocene or the age of technology. The essay highlights how contemporary Human–GenAI-assisted writing necessitates a broader and more nuanced recognition of collaborative authorship, while also examining what distinguishes GenAI from earlier forms of technological assistance in writing.
