CRAFT: Exploring Wearable Creative AI on Smart Glasses for Fiction Writing in Real-World Contexts
摘要
Creative writing increasingly integrates AI assistance, yet current tools miss in-situ moments when writers draw inspiration from real-world experiences. We envision Context-aware Reality-Fiction Transformation (CRAFT), an approach for AI glasses that translates daily experiences into fiction narratives. We explored its desirability, feasibility, and potential viability through three studies. Interviews with nine writers yielded desires and three design goals: 1) augmenting in-situ perception to bridge reality-fiction gaps, 2) promoting authenticity grounded in real-world experiences while maintaining fictionalization, and 3) preserving creative agency, enjoyment, and life-art boundaries. Co-design workshops with 16 writers and researchers operationalized these goals into concrete interaction mechanisms using a technology probe. We then conducted supported field trials with eight writers across 24 sessions using a refined probe, revealing writer-perceived benefits (e.g., enriched fictional ideas from serendipitous encounters), emergent practices (e.g., micro-creation), and design considerations for future sustained use. We contribute design explorations for the CRAFT approach, offering design implications and empirical insights on ubiquitous human-AI creative collaboration in everyday life.
