Abstract

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly reshaping the creative landscape, pushing the boundaries of traditional artistic practices and creative industries. Moving beyond the notion of automation, generative AI is now recognized as a collaborator in the creative process. Models such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), Variational Autoencoders (VAEs), and Transformer-based systems have unlocked new possibilities for art, music, design, literature, and other forms of creative expression. This paper explores how generative AI is transforming the creative process, from enhancing human creativity to producing original content. We examine the implications of AI on industries such as visual arts, music, literature, and design, discussing both the opportunities and challenges it presents. Additionally, ethical considerations surrounding authorship, ownership, and the potential for AI to disrupt traditional creative industries are explored. The paper concludes with a discussion of the future trajectory of AI in creative fields and its potential for collaboration between human creators and machines.
