What happens to meaning when machines begin to write, interpret, and organize the symbolic world alongside us? This book offers a timely and intellectually ambitious answer, showing that the rise of generative artificial intelligence is not simply a technological development, but a profound cultural and epistemological turning point. At stake is far more than efficiency or automation. The book reveals how AI is reshaping the conditions under which humans produce knowledge, assign value, establish trust, and make sense of increasingly dense fields of language, images, and information. Drawing together phenomenology, semiotics, media theory, philosophy of technology, and the humanities, it provides a powerful framework for understanding how interpretation itself is changing in the age of intelligent systems. Rather than treating AI as a novelty or a threat in isolation, the volume situates contemporary generative systems within a much longer history of symbolic mediation and human meaning-making. Through incisive analysis and vivid interdisciplinary examples drawn from visual culture, digital humanities, cultural heritage, and knowledge production, the book demonstrates how computational systems can illuminate patterns, expand interpretive reach, and simultaneously generate new forms of ambiguity, distortion, and epistemic instability. The result is a work that is both theoretically rigorous and urgently relevant.
