Generative AI challenges traditional views of creativity, paper argues

A new paper argues that the traditional requirement of conscious intentional agency for creativity should be re-evaluated in light of generative AI's capabilities. Researchers James Pearson and colleagues propose that creativity is better understood as dependent on "creative ability" rather than conscious intent. This framework accommodates the apparent creativity of AI systems without dismissing the intuitive importance of perceived intentions in human judgments of creativity. AI

IMPACT Challenges the definition of creativity, potentially impacting how AI capabilities are assessed and understood.
