This article talks in-depth about the specific ways and applications of AI creativity and how it works, divided into three different types. This is important when categorizing creativity itself and what AI can achieve at the moment and it calls into question whether contents produced by AI can be defined as creative contents. Furthermore, while AI technology keeps advancing, will it become a separate genre that differs from human-generated work?

Holding an opposite view, Erden argues that to call AI productions or acts as creative is to “misunderstand the use of this word in the language.” Hence, he calls into question of the definition of creativity, which is part of the reason why there’s an ethical dilemma regarding this topic. Should we as humans narrow down the scope of creativity to only human-produced works or should the AI be accredited toward their creative products? Though, this article focuses on the replication of AI and how that could not be defined as AI being creative.
Millie, you’ve done a great job finding sources that reflect different ways to approach the same issue, this will undoubtedly make your paper stronger. The second source in the post caught my eye, its focus was specifically on creativity and the human definition. But in the grand scheme of AI being integrated into our society, will creativity really be the primary focus? From a utilitarian perspective, meaning the greatest good for the greatest number of people, it seems that the applications of AI in data processing, recommendation algorithms, self driving cars, personal assistants, etc. would all have benefits to society that should surpass any hindrances that occur in the art or music industries. Of course, this is just another perspective! Feel free to include it in your essay if you’re in need of additional ethical analysis

Millie, these are two very credible sources, and two great summaries! For the first of the two, the focus on different ways AI can grow––as a focus towards the future rather than solely on the present––adds depth to the understanding of AI in general. As for the second, I really appreciate the inclusion of an opposing view, and even more so because this is an essay with an ethical lens. It takes a good writer to explicitly point out and analyze a contradicting view of their evidence or argument, and the second source will serve this purpose. This, as you know, strengthens an argument immensely, so it was a good choice to include it.

Hey Millie, I thought it was cool how you found articles with differing views. The question you posed in the first part, is a question I’ve always thought about. In my opinion, AI will eventually begin to make its own work, but instead of having its own genre, it will replace human-made work.
