Artistic intelligence vs. artificial intelligence

Abstract

This paper studies the relationship between artistic intelligence and artificial intelligence (IA) in terms of their creative potential to produce works of art. Emphasizing the importance of randomness for creative processes, it will argue that, on a higher level, artificial intelligence is only capable of imitating creativity but not of really being creative, also because AI lacks the ability to critically reflect on its own experiences and insights. For the use of artificial intelligence as a tool for artists, the paper pleads for a critical handling that goes beyond the options that AI programs offer.
