This course explores what artificial intelligence (AI) can teach us about human storytelling. We'll tackle this question through a two-pronged approach: story understanding and story generation. Students will explore how AI and machine learning technologies have revolutionized our approach to analyzing narratives as well as computational methods and concepts for modeling stories, moving towards a broader understanding of storytelling's societal effects.
