arXiv:2607. 20796v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper examines the question of whether artificial intelligence (AI) systems can be creative, approached from the dual perspective of a researcher trained in electrical engineering, pattern recognition, machine learning, and neural networks, who has also spent most of his life engaged in the arts as actor, stage and film director, writer, composer, and visual artist, and in philosophy.

The article discusses how generative AI is reshaping the creation and circulation of cultural artifacts, prompting debate over whether these tools enrich or impoverish culture. It distinguishes between novelty—an attribute of individual artifacts—and diversity—an attribute of populations—arguing that creativity should be viewed as a property of hybrid collectives composed of people and algorithms. The authors find that AI-assisted ideation increases the novelty of individual outputs while potentially narrowing overall diversity, but that mixed human–machine groups can outperform single-type groups and sustain machine-generated solutions within human culture, depending on the composition and connectivity of the agents involved.
