摘要

这篇综述文章考察了最近两篇探讨人工智能(AI)和通信之间关系的出版物。讨论人机通信(HMC)作为通信和媒体研究中的一个新兴研究领域，强调了这一工作的两个重要含义。首先，“人”的组成部分仍然在HMC中发挥着关键作用，因为我们所说的“人工智能”既来自于计算技术的技术和物质功能，也来自于与人工智能技术交流的人类的贡献。其次，HMC挑战了媒介的概念，因为机器同时是通信信息的渠道和生产者。解决这一挑战的一个潜在方法是动员媒介历史和理论中的现有方法，将媒介的概念扩展到仅仅作为渠道的概念之外。

Communicating Through or Communicating with: Approaching Artificial Intelligence from a Communication and Media Studies Perspective

This review article examines two recent publications that explore the relationship between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and communication. Discussing Human–Machine Communication (HMC) as an emerging area of inquiry within communication and media studies, two important implications of this body of work are highlighted. First, the "human" component still plays a key role in HMC, since what we call “AI” derives from the technical and material functioning of computing technologies as much as from the contribution of the humans who enter in communication with AI technologies. Second, HMC challenges the very concept of medium, because the machine is at the same time the channel as well as the producer of communication messages. A potential way to solve this challenge is to mobilize existing approaches in media history and theory that expand the concept of medium beyond its conceptualization as mere channel.

期刊介绍： Communication Theory is an international forum publishing high quality, original research into the theoretical development of communication from across a wide array of disciplines, such as communication studies, sociology, psychology, political science, cultural and gender studies, philosophy, linguistics, and literature. A journal of the International Communication Association, Communication Theory especially welcomes work in the following areas of research, all of them components of ICA: Communication and Technology, Communication Law and Policy, Ethnicity and Race in Communication, Feminist Scholarship, Global Communication and Social Change, Health Communication, Information Systems, Instructional/Developmental Communication, Intercultural Communication, Interpersonal Communication, Journalism Studies, Language and Social Interaction, Mass Communication, Organizational Communication, Philosophy of Communication, Political Communication, Popular Communication, Public Relations, Visual Communication Studies, Children, Adolescents and the Media, Communication History, Game Studies, Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Studies, and Intergroup Communication. The journal aims to be inclusive in theoretical approaches insofar as these pertain to communication theory.
