Artificial Intelligence and Communicative Possibilities of Cinema: Augmentative and Alternative Communication Applications

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Communication is a fundamental vital act that enables an individual not only to connect with his/her environment but also to realise himself/herself. Communication, which is one of the most defining characteristics of being human, is not equally accessible for everyone, even though it is often regarded as a natural ability. Some individuals may face serious difficulties in communicating due to various congenital or acquired reasons. This situation directly affects not only the individual's self-expression but also his/her participation in social life. The hypermodern age we are in has made technology not only a means of accessing information, but also a means of supporting the basic needs of human beings. In this context, artificial intelligence-based augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) solutions offer important opportunities for individuals who face various barriers in communication. Thanks to these technologies, individuals can access a platform where they can express themselves, interact and participate more actively in social life. At this point, it is seen that cinema audiovisual narrative tools, which are included in the multidimensional nature of communication, are remarkable in terms of their potential to offer creative solutions to communication problems in general. Cinema is not only a means of entertainment; it is also a rich narrative field where different forms of communication are made visible and artificial intelligence-supported solutions are represented. Thus, cinema stands out as a medium that supports inclusiveness in communication, both representationally and technologically.
