Dear Colleagues, The Journal of Contemporary Eastern Asia is pleased to invite submissions for our upcoming special issue: “Living with ChatGPT: Social, Psychological, and Economic Impacts of Generative AI in East Asia”, Guest Editors are Dr. Weiwen Yu & Dr. Chun Shao. This special issue moves beyond technical assessments and policy analyses to foreground the lived experiences of AI in East Asia. We welcome interdisciplinary contributions that examine how generative AI technologies both shape—and are shaped by—the cultural norms, economic realities, and psychological landscapes of the region. The JCEA invites conceptual, methodological, and empirical studies on topics including (but not limited to): 1. AI tools in education: opportunities, academic integrity, evolving pedagogy 2. Generative AI in creative industries: literature, art, film, fan culture 3. Language, translation, and cultural nuance in AI-generated content 4. Economic implications: automation, gig work, productivity, deskilling 5. AI and emotional labor: companionship, counseling, social bots 6. Public perceptions, moral panics, and regulatory debates 7. Everyday resistance, adaptation, and creative appropriation of AI tools 8. Cross-societal variations in adoption, perception, and use of generative AI in East Asia 👉 Full CFP details are available here: [link<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G_TJ9_KxAYRoECH4y-1k1tdhn05ONMoT/view?fbclid=IwY2xjawMhzfNleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFIb1NNOGZ1cmp0TjY4dWpPAR5eaXb0SqsLEi1eKFYsv3nGO6w-CQR5qP7nAmRl1vMbFb3x4nL3KR4X2jsCUg_aem_YpAQaXRXH28oLr0rjGmFrg>] https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G_TJ9_KxAYRoECH4y-1k1tdhn05ONMoT/view?fbcli...
