Project Phoenix – Resurrecting ASAPS, an Obsolete IDN Authoring System Using Generative AI
摘要
This paper describes an approach to resurrect the ASAPS IDN authoring system using generative AI. ASAPS was originally written in Actionscript 2, an obsolete scripting language. Starting with a discussion of the ASAPS authoring tools’ original status, architecture and why it fell into obsolescence, the paper proceeds by detailing the process resurrecting the project focusing on the limitations and capabilities of current GenAI tools. Finally, lessons learned along the way are presented, hoping to inspire future work in digital preservation.
