"Human-AI Co-Creativity: Exploring Synergies Across Levels of Creative Collaboration" by Jennifer Haase and Sebastian Pokutta

Summary

This source explores Human-AI Co-Creativity, arguing that generative AI can significantly enhance human creative abilities by acting as a collaborative partner rather than just a tool. It outlines a progression through four levels of digital tool integration in creative tasks, from simple digital pens to sophisticated AI co-creators that contribute original ideas. Using examples from mathematics, the authors illustrate how AI can move beyond assisting with complex computations to actively participating in the discovery of novel solutions, suggesting a future where AI complements and amplifies human creativity for unprecedented achievements. The text also touches on the philosophical debate surrounding the "true" creativity of AI and the importance of designing AI systems that support human skills.
