Creativity in Humans and Creativity in AI
Tharindra Galahena
Creativity can be defined as a process of creating something original and valuable. It can be the creation of an idea, a story, a joke, a painting, music or even a strategy or a solution. This kind of a creative task mostly includes a chain or a tree of decisions. For an example, if we are telling a story, we have to make decisions like what will be the places, what will be the time period, who will be characters and what incidents will be there in the story.
When we talk about AI, we can see that AI have been used in various tasks such as creating strategies in games (ex: Chess), that require creativity for some time. There were also some attempts in teaching computers to do activities such as write stories, create paintings and music. Although machines can perform some of these tasks better (ex: playing board games), there are also some tasks that machines are not very good at. For an example, making a joke or telling a story is not something that the AI are very good when compared to humans.
