Human and Machine as Seen at the Co-Creation Age: A Co-Word Analysis in Human Machine Co-creation (2014-2024)

Abstract: This paper explores the evolving landscape of human-machine co-creation, focusing on its development in the context of the ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI) from 2014 to 2024. We employ co-word analysis to identify emerging trends, central themes, and the intellectual trajectory of this field. The study highlights the shift from viewing machines as mere tools to recognizing them as collaborative partners in creative processes. By understanding these dynamics, we aim to provide insights into the implications of this paradigm shift for creativity, innovation, and societal impact, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and effective approach to human-machine interaction in various domains.
