Creativity is a complex cognitive ability that relies on knowledge organisation and retrieval from semantic memory. Yet most research uses a single task to measure it, capturing only a fraction of this complexity.
arXiv:2606. 11762v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in language understanding, reasoning, and generation, sparking growing interest in their creative potential.
arXiv:2510. 20091v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Creativity is often seen as a hallmark of human intelligence.
Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in language understanding, reasoning, and generation, sparking growing interest in their creative potential. Realizing this potential requires systematic and scalable methods for evaluating creativity across diverse tasks.
arXiv:2607. 28644v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Creativity in computational systems is often evaluated as an objective property of artifacts, with existing Computational Creativity (CC) frameworks assessing creative merit at the level of outputs or systems rather than interpretive context.
arXiv:2607. 01433v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Divergent thinking is a crucial aspect of creativity, yet large language models (LLMs) tend to consistently generate similar responses to open-ended questions, in what has been termed the artificial hivemind effect.
arXiv:2603. 19087v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Creativity is the ability to come up with novel ideas, a capacity crucial for human development and flourishing.
arXiv:2608. 06501v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Creative capabilities of MLLMs matter in design, communication, education, and human--AI collaboration, yet remain difficult to evaluate because explicit targets and reward signals are scarce compared with accuracy-oriented tasks.
arXiv:2604. 03480v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Creative thinking is a fundamental aspect of human cognition, and divergent thinking-the capacity to generate novel and varied ideas-is widely regarded as its core generative engine.
arXiv:2608. 07460v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While post-training improves the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), it generally lowers their output diversity and creativity, negatively impacting tasks that explicitly require creativity (e.
arXiv:2606. 05532v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent studies reveal a paradox: AI enhances individual creative outputs while reducing collective diversity.
arXiv:2604. 03374v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Creative problem-solving requires combining multiple cognitive abilities, including logical reasoning, lateral thinking, analogy-making, and commonsense knowledge, to discover insights that connect seemingly unrelated pieces of information.
arXiv:2606. 07226v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human creativity has emerged as a critical competency in the era of large language models.
