Permanent home · Volume Editors & Contributing Authors

Three connected conversations for the six volumes

This is the continuing home for these contributions, not a weekly agenda notice. It gives editors, contributors, and readers one stable place to see how the work connects to the six-volume Business Storytelling in the Age of AI project and to the RECORD Registered Report.

Mark Hillon · Strategy Storytelling

Cognitive Surrender

Hillon names the human consequence of a successful Consent Machine: accepting an AI-generated answer or organizational story without retaining the labor of testing evidence, questioning its frame, or judging its effects. Strategy storytelling restores inquiry, dialogue, ethical judgment, and the capacity to read what a smooth story has excluded.

Illa Isenor · Longitudinal human–AI archive

Continuity, Repair, and Human Voice

Isenor carries the narrative, visual instructions, corrections, repetition, and intended meaning between otherwise separate AI systems. Her longitudinal archive makes that human continuity work visible—and shows why the final AI-generated artifact cannot be treated as though it made itself.

Perplexity interpretation: a dark Smart
Roach Motel scene with AI figures. — **Perplexity**Darker interpretation of the shared concept.

GPT interpretation: a colorful Smart
Roach Motel scene naming a bidirectional human and AI
co-creation feedback loop. — **GPT**Transferred context, directed revision, and a changed visual language.

The human continuity bridge: the similarities show what Illa’s continuing direction achieved; the differences show the platform-specific interpretation and the otherwise hidden human labor of repair, memory, and editorial control.

How the three conversations meet in an Experimental Design, supporting the six volumes

Experimental Groups, Pre and Post Tests

Experimental Groups

Pretest

Posttest

Experimental Group A: Hybrid AI/Human Constellation Consulting

Before the experimental stage, subjects fill out 15-minute Vujade™ survey on-line.

After the experimental stage, subject fill our 10-minute perceived ownership, fidelity, & agency 7-point scale items

Experimental Group B: Embodied Restorying Process (ERP)/AI Coaching

Experimental Group C: Control group doing short essay writing with & without AI.

Volumes 1 and 6: extend the question to organizational futures and to water, AI, and the life of all species—where consent, accountability, and consequence cannot be separated.
Volume 2 · Algorithmic Sensemaking & Delegated Narrative Editing: asks how organizational meaning is edited, authorized, and displaced through AI.
Volume 3 · True Storytelling & Inclusion: gives human voice, plural testimony, and answerable participation their central place.
Volume 4 · Human–AI Co‑Creation: studies the conditions under which assistance becomes genuine co-creation rather than replacement or erasure.
Volume 5 · SEAM: makes visible the hidden costs and lost human potential beneath AI transformation claims.
