SummaryA five-year interview study (2021–2025) with 17 Chinese digital painters tracks how they negotiate human versus AI authorship over time, identifying patterns of protective resistance, pragmatic task delegation, and reflective agency repartitioning. The authors propose 'longitudinal agency partitioning' and suggest design implications for boundary controls, provenance, and authorship norms.
Why it mattersFive-year longitudinal interview data on how creative practitioners actually redraw the human–AI boundary over time is rare; the design implications for boundary controls and provenance transfer to agentic workflow design.
