Cognitive Trajectory Modeling: Quantifying Human-AI Co-Creation through Cognitively Grounded Interaction Trajectories
This paper introduces Cognitive Trajectory Modeling (CTM), a new theoretical framework for understanding human-AI co-creation. CTM conceptualizes cognition, interaction, and creativity as temporally organized trajectories within attractor landscapes. It builds upon existing theories of sense-making and creativity, proposing that temporal representations are only interpretable as cognitive trajectories if their underlying states have directional cognitive meaning. CTM aims to provide a more robust method for modeling interaction dynamics in co-creative AI systems and human-AI interactions. AI
IMPACT Provides a theoretical foundation for understanding and modeling the dynamics of human-AI co-creative processes.
