How AI can help supercharge creativity

It is far from the only researcher to worry about the cognitive impact of these technologies. In February, a team in Microsoft Research Cambridge has published a report that concludes that the Trucitite IQs “can prevent critical participation with work and can lead to long -term excessive tool and skill decreasing to solve independent problems.” The researchers found that with the use of obstetrics, people’s effort “moves from carrying out tasks to overseeing tasks.”

Cook is concerned that obstetrics do not allow you to fail – a decisive part of learning new skills. Cook says that we usually say that artists are talented. But the fact is that artists work in their art, and develop their skills for months and years.

“If you actually speak to the artists, they say:” Well, you have become good by doing this over and over again. “But failure is absorbed. We are always looking for ways to overcome this. “

Getting models, let’s overcome frustration from doing bad work.

“Unfortunately, we remove the only thing you have to do to develop creative skills for yourself, which is a failure,” says Cook. “But no one wants to hear that.”

Surprise for me

However, it is not all bad news. Artists and researchers wander around the ways that the obstetrics of creators can be able to refer to, which indicates them in sudden new directions and directing them away through dead end. Cook believes that AI’s real promise will be to help us improve what we want to do instead of doing this for us. Therefore, he says, we will need to create new tools, different from those we have now. He says: “The use of Midjourney does not do anything for me – does not change anything about me.” “I think this is a lost opportunity.”

Ask a group of researchers who study creativity to nominate a major part of the creative process and many will say: Thinking. It is difficult to determine exactly, but reflection is a specific type of concentrated and deliberate thinking. This is what happens when a new idea strikes you. Or when it turns out that you are wrong and need to rethink your approach. It is the opposite of the interaction of one shot.

The search for ways that may support or encourage artificial intelligence-as is the case in throwing new ideas in the mixtures or challenges that you already keep-is a common topic through joint creativity research. If the obstetric tools like Dall-E make the creation without friction, then the goal here is to add friction again. “How can we make art without friction?” ELISA GIACCARDI, who studies design at Milan Polytechnic University in Italy. “How can we really engage in a creative process without a substance that pushes back?”
