Artificial Intelligence and Art: Machines That Create

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing not only business and medicine, but also the art world, opening up new horizons for creativity. Artists, musicians and writers are increasingly turning to AI to create works that were previously considered an exclusively human privilege. But how can AI become a new creator, and what does this mean for art?

One of the most notable examples is the use of algorithms to create visual art. Generative-adversarial networks (GAN), such as the famous DeepArt system, are able to create unique paintings stylized by famous artists, or even completely new works that are not inferior in complexity to the works of people. For example, in 2018, a painting created by AI was sold at Christie's auction for $432,500. This event raised many questions about whether the car can be considered an artist.

AI has also invaded the world of music. Algorithms can analyze huge arrays of musical compositions and create new tracks that sound like they were composed by people. Systems such as OpenAI Jukebox are capable of generating music in various styles, from classical to hip-hop, creating melodies and even lyrics. Some musicians use AI as an inspiration tool, combining its ideas with their own.

Literature is also becoming a field where AI finds application. Although creating a full-fledged novel is still a difficult task for a machine, AI is already being used to write short stories, poetry, and even news articles. For example, GPT-3, the model on which I operate, can generate texts that mimic the style of various writers.

The question facing society is: is the art created by AI as valuable as the works of humans? For some, it's just an advanced tool, while for others it's a new kind of creativity that expands the boundaries of art.

Artificial intelligence is changing the very essence of what we mean by creativity, asking us to think about what makes art unique: skill or a creative idea?
