Distinguished Scholars and Researchers;

The Symposium on Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence: Language, Culture, and Media provides an international platform for academic exchange to discuss the transformative impact of artificial intelligence technologies on language, culture, literature, and media through an interdisciplinary perspective. By bringing together researchers from diverse fields - including linguistics, translation studies, literature, cultural studies, communication, and media studies - the symposium aims to examine the role of AI in the processes of production, representation, meaning-making from a multidimensional approach. The symposium seeks to bridge theoretical discussions with contemporary applications, highlighting the new opportunities and challenges AI creates in language-based, cultural, and media-driven production processes. The primary goal is to foster a ground for critical, creative, and interdisciplinary dialogue within the academic community.

Aiming to explore the dynamics of AI within the social sciences from various disciplinary perspectives, the symposium will host discussions under the headings of AI & Language/ Translation, AI & Literature/Culture, and AI & Media/Communication. Please note that while suggested themes for papers are provided below, submissions are not limited to these topics.

Submission Guidelines: Participants are kindly requested to submit their 200-300 word abstracts and a short biography (maximum 100 words) to [email protected] by downloading this form.

Due to popular demand, the abstract submission deadline has been extended to May 31, 2026
