 ABSTRACT

In recent years, advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning have given rise
to powerful new tools and methods for creative practitioners. 2022–2023 in particular saw an
explosion in generative AI tools, models and use cases. Noting the long history of critical arts
engaging with AI, this chapter considers both the application of generative AI in the creative
industries, and ways in which artists co-shape the development of these emerging technologies. After
reviewing the landscape of generative AI in visual arts, music and games, we propose four areas of
critical interest for the future co-shaping of generative AI and creative practice in the areas of
communities and open source, deeper engagement with AI, beyond the human and cultural feedbacks.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

The last half a century has seen advances across a range of technological domains, including
artificial intelligence (AI), as well as in new imaging and immersive techniques. The last decade in
particular has seen major break-throughs in machine learning, and recent developments in diffusion
models and large language models have given rise to powerful and widely accessible generative
AI tools. In 2022–2023 AI-powered image generators and chat-bot assistants have exploded into
the mainstream and the public conscious-ness, with some declaring a “golden age for AI art”
(Faber, 2022). This has led to unprecedented opportunities for artistic creation but also profound
concerns about the implications for professional artists and society at large.
These AI capabilities can underpin new forms of creative practice and fuel transformative
experiences for audiences across the creative industries, including performing arts, visual arts,
music, museums and heritage, games, film/TV, digital media, advertising and creative design. A
comprehensive review of some of the key creative AI technologies and their uses can be found in
Anantrasirichai and Bull (2022). Extending to “(i) content creation, (ii) information analysis, (iii)
content enhancement and post production workflows, (iv) information extraction and enhancement,
and (v) data com-pression” (Anantrasirichai and Bull, 2022, p.589), the wide-reaching scope
of these technologies is challenging to engage with, both for creators as well as their audiences.
While we are wary of hype cycles, this is a moment in which many creators are exploring
the implications of AI for their own practice (Cremer et al., 2023) and voicing their perspectives
on the profound upheavals that these developments bring (Hemment et al., 2023a). We see
important changes in human–computer creativity. Authorship and audience experiences are
becoming ever more digital, networked, algorithmic and complex. Conversational agents, virtual
characters, interactive robots and other autonomous technologies are increasingly becoming part
of creative content. This transition goes beyond the simple adoption of new formats or
technologies: we are entering into a whole new context for making, sharing, learning, connecting
and consuming.
With new capabilities come new challenges. The complex algorithms of AI are often black-
boxed, with their operations and assumptions not accessible to human understanding. The outputs
of the new generation of platform-based tools, such as recently released text-to-image generators,

SEMINAR REPORT 2024 GENERATIVE AI & CREATIVE APPLICATIONS

appear like ‘magic’, with little scope for human intervention or creative control. Often, the only
creative input is through a text prompt, and the generative models that underpin the current tools
are largely trained on massive datasets scraped from the internet without permission or fair pay for
the original content creators (Wu, 2020). Other urgent concerns include excessive energy use,
harmful bias and misinformation. With the release of ever more powerful generative AI tools,
issues that were previously considered niche concerns within data science have become
increasingly mainstream ethical minefields.
At times of social and economic upheaval, artists are often at the fore-front, helping to
illuminate the ways emerging technologies impact on life at a profound level (Ibid.). A specific
interest in this chapter is critical arts, or critical AI arts, where creative practitioners directly engage
in the politics, ethics and philosophy of AI, and in its capacity to challenge and inform as well as
to delight audiences (Hemment et al., 2022). Artists expose and explore the sublime, the
indefinable, what we can’t put into words (Ingram, 2023), and the outputs of the statistical lens of
AI are often uncanny and preternatural, beyond what is normal or natural (Hemment et al., 2019).
Artists are currently pushing at the boundaries of human–machine creativity to generate works that
combine machine learning methods with human intuition and embodied experience.
In this chapter we provide a brief overview of creative practice concerning generative AI,
with a focus on practical examples in visual art, music and games to highlight some priorities for
emergent areas of study. This chapter argues that it is necessary to equip cultural producers and
artists to negotiate political, legal, security, ethical and environmental controversies and challenges
in emerging technologies and formats and to develop best practices.
The case study associated with this chapter offers more examples of how this can be done
in practice. In it we describe the work of the research group and creative community The New
Real,1 a joint initiative of the University of Edinburgh and the Alan Turing Institute, in which some
of the authors of this chapter are involved and which is intimately concerned with the previous
challenges and themes. The New Real has the twin ambitions of supporting the creation of
significant new art and inspiring new concepts and paradigms for fair and inclusive AI, which it
advances through its novel research theme, experiential AI (Hemment et al., 2019).

CHAPTER 2
WHAT IS GENERATIVE AI?

Generative AI (Gen AI) is a type of artificial intelligence technology that can produce various
types of content, including text, imagery, audio and synthetic data. The recent buzz around generative
AI has been driven by the simplicity of new user interfaces for creating high-quality text, graphics
and videos in a matter of seconds.
The technology, it should be noted, is not brand-new. Generative AI was introduced in the
1960s in chatbots. But it was not until 2014, with the introduction of generative adversarial networks,
or GANs -- a type of machine learning algorithm -- that generative AI could create convincingly
authentic images, videos and audio of real people.
On the one hand, this newfound capability has opened up opportunities that include better
movie dubbing and rich educational content. It also unlocked concerns about deepfakes -- digitally
forged images or videos -- and harmful cybersecurity attacks on businesses, including nefarious
requests that realistically mimic an employee's boss.
Two additional recent advances that will be discussed in more detail below have played a
critical part in generative AI going mainstream: transformers and the breakthrough language models
they enabled. Transformers are a type of machine learning that made it possible for researchers to
train ever-larger models without having to label all of the data in advance. New models could thus be
trained on billions of pages of text, resulting in answers with more depth. In addition, transformers
unlocked a new notion called attention that enabled models to track the connections between words
across pages, chapters and books rather than just in individual sentences. And not just words:
Transformers could also use their ability to track connections to analyze code, proteins, chemicals and
DNA.
The rapid advances in so-called large language models (LLMs) -- i.e., models with billions or
even trillions of parameters -- have opened a new era in which generative AI models can write
engaging text, paint photorealistic images and even create somewhat entertaining sitcoms on the fly.
Moreover, innovations in multimodal AI enable teams to generate content across multiple types of
media, including text, graphics and video. This is the basis for tools like Dall-E that automatically
create images from a text description or generate text captions from images.

These breakthroughs notwithstanding, we are still in the early days of using generative AI to
create readable text and photorealistic stylized graphics. Early implementations have had issues with
accuracy and bias, as well as being prone to hallucinations and spitting back weird answers. Still,
progress thus far indicates that the inherent capabilities of this generative AI could fundamentally
change enterprise technology how businesses operate. Going forward, this technology could help
write code, design new drugs, develop products, redesign business processes and transform supply
chains.

CHAPTER 5
TYPES OF GENERATIVE AI

Generative AI encompasses various models and techniques that aim to generate new data or
content that resembles human-created data. There are several types of generative AI models, each
with its own unique approach to generating content. Some of the most prominent types include:

5.1 Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)

GANs consist of two neural networks, the generator and the discriminator, that
compete against each other in a game-like setup. The generator generates synthetic data (e.g.,
images, text) from random noise, while the discriminator’s task is to distinguish between real
and fake data. The generator aims to create increasingly realistic data to deceive the
discriminator, while the discriminator improves its ability to differentiate real from generated
data. Through this competition, GANs are capable of generating highly realistic content, and
they have been successfully used in image synthesis, art creation, and video generation.

5.2 Variational Autoencoders (VAEs)

VAEs are generative models that learn to encode data into a latent space and then
decode it back to reconstruct the original data. They learn probabilistic representations of the
input data, allowing them to generate new samples from the learned distribution. VAEs are
commonly used in image generation tasks and have also been applied to text & audio
generation.

5.3 Autoregressive Models

Autoregressive models generate data one element at a time, conditioning the

generation of each element on previously generated elements. These models predict the
probability distribution of the next element given the context of the previous elements and
then sample from that distribution to generate new data. Popular examples of autoregressive
models include language models like GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer), which can
generate coherent and contextually appropriate text.

DEPARTMENT OF CHE 7 EKNMMPTC KALLIASSERY

SEMINAR REPORT 2024 GENERATIVE AI & CREATIVE APPLICATIONS

5.4 Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs)

RNNs are a type of neural network that processes sequential data, such as natural
language sentences or time-series data. They can be used for generative tasks by predicting
the next element in the sequence given the previous elements. However, RNNs are limited in
generating long sequences due to the vanishing gradient problem. More advanced variants of
RNNs, such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), have
been developed to address this limitation.

5.5 Transformer-based Models

Transformers, like the GPT series, have gained significant popularity in natural
language processing and generative tasks. They use attention mechanisms to model the
relationships between different elements in a sequence effectively. Transformers are
parallelizable and can handle long sequences, making them well-suited for generating coherent
and contextually relevant text.

5.6 Reinforcement Learning for Generative Tasks

Reinforcement learning can also be applied to generative tasks. In this setup, an agent
learns to generate data by interacting with an environment and receiving rewards or feedback
based on the quality of the generated samples. This approach has been used in areas like text
generation, where reinforcement learning helps fine-tune generated text based on user
feedback.

These are just some of the types of generative AI models, and there is ongoing research and
development in this field, leading to the emergence of new and more advanced generative models
over time.

6.3 Manufacturing
In manufacturing, professionals can use generative AI to look for ways to improve efficiency,
anticipate maintenance needs before they cause problems, help engineers create better designs faster,
and create a more resilient supply chain. Let’s explore these potential manufacturing solutions:
• Accelerating the design process: Using generative AI, engineers and project managers can
work through the design process much faster by generating design ideas and asking the AI to
assess ideas based on the constraints of the project.
• Provide smart maintenance solutions for equipment: Maintenance professionals can use
generative AI to track the performance of heavy equipment based on historical data,
potentially alerting them to trouble before the machine malfunctions. Generative AI can also
recommend routine maintenance schedules.
• Improve supply chain: You could use generative AI to track down the cause of problems in
the supply chain by speaking conversationally with the technology to sort through a vast
amount of transactional or product data. Generative AI can also help generate delivery
schedules or recommendations for suppliers.
6.4 Software development
For a software development team, generative AI can provide tools to create and optimize code faster
and with less experience using programming languages. A few examples of the applications of
generative AI in software development include:
• Generating code: Software developers can create, optimize, and auto-complete code with
generative AI. Generative AI can create code blocks by comparing them to a library of similar

DEPARTMENT OF CHE 10 EKNMMPTC KALLIASSERY

SEMINAR REPORT 2024 GENERATIVE AI & CREATIVE APPLICATIONS

information. It can also predict the rest of the code a developer begins to type, much like how
auto-complete works while texting on a smartphone.
• Translate programming languages: Generative AI can be a tool for developers to interact
with software without needing a programming language. The generative AI would act as a
translator.
• Automate testing: Developers can improve their automated testing processes using
generative AI to highlight potential problems and execute testing sequences faster than other
AI methods. Generative AI can learn the logic of the software and how users will interact with
it and create test cases to demonstrate various user scenarios.
6.5 Financial services
According to McKinsey, generative AI could add $200 billion to $340 billion of value to the banking
industry annually. Some of the applications of generative AI in the financial services industry include
artificial intelligence investment strategies, drafting documentation and monitoring regulatory
changes, and using generative AI as an interpreter to facilitate communications between clients and
investors.
• Create investment strategies: Generative AI can recommend the best investments according
to your or your client’s goals. This technology can find and execute trades much faster than
human investors and can do so within the parameters you set for the kind of transaction you
want.
• Communicate and educate clients and investors: Financial services professionals
sometimes need to communicate complex information to clients and colleagues. Generational
AI can provide hyperpersonalized customer service without adding more customer service
professionals.
• Quickly draft documentation and monitor regulation: Generative AI can monitor
regulatory activity, keep you informed of any changes, and create drafts of documents such as
investment research or insurance policies.
6.6 Media and entertainment
Media and entertainment could embrace generative AI in several ways, considering the industry
primarily engages in the same task as the tech: generating unique content. Generative AI can help
create and edit visual content, create short highlight videos of sporting events, and make working with
content management systems easier.

SEMINAR REPORT 2024 GENERATIVE AI & CREATIVE APPLICATIONS

CHAPTER 8
LIMITATIONS

Generative AI, while impressive, has its limitations. It can produce content that appears
realistic but may lack true comprehension or context understanding. This can result in the
generation of incorrect or biased information. Moreover, ethical concerns regarding the misuse of
generative AI for generating fake news, deep fakes, or other deceptive content are significant
challenges. The quality and coherence of generated output can also vary, and controlling these
aspects remains an ongoing challenge in the field. Additionally, the substantial computational
resources required for training and running generative AI models can be a limitation for some
applications. The limitations of generative artificial intelligence are as follows.

1.Ethical Concerns

Generative AI raises ethical concerns related to the creation and dissemination of fake content.
Deep fake videos, fake news articles, and forged documents created by AI models can deceive and
manipulate individuals, leading to misinformation, identity theft, and privacy breaches. Addressing
these concerns requires robust regulations and ethical guidelines.

2.Bias and Fairness

AI models, including generative ones, can inherit biases present in their training data. This can
result in discriminatory outcomes, perpetuating biases against certain groups. Developers must be
vigilant in mitigating bias and ensuring that AI systems are fair and equitable.

3.Lack of Creativity

While generative AI can produce creative content, it lacks genuine creativity and understanding.
AI-generated art, for example, may lack the depth of human expression and emotion. This
limitation can be especially noticeable in creative fields where a deep understanding of human
experiences is crucial.

4.Data Dependency

Generative AI models require vast amounts of data to function effectively. They rely on patterns
and information from their training data to generate content. This means that they may struggle in

DEPARTMENT OF CHE 15 EKNMMPTC KALLIASSERY

SEMINAR REPORT 2024 GENERATIVE AI & CREATIVE APPLICATIONS

situations where data is scarce or unrepresentative, limiting their usefulness in niche domains.

5.Energy Consumption

Training large generative AI models consumes a significant amount of energy and computing
resources. The environmental impact of AI, especially in data centers, has raised concerns about
sustainability. Researchers are actively working on more energy-efficient AI models, but this
remains a significant limitation.

6.Cost of Development

Building and training generative AI models can be prohibitively expensive. Access to high-quality
data, powerful hardware, and expertise in machine learning is not readily available to all
organizations and individuals. This creates a digital divide and limits the democratization of AI
technology.

The horizon of generative AI is laden with promising prospects, set to redefine

technological landscapes and societal paradigms. Here, we outline key trajectories and trends that
may shape the future of generative AI:

1. Advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs)

The continuous progression of Large Language Models (LLMs), as exemplified by

OpenAI’s GPT series, signifies a transformative journey towards more sophisticated and context-
aware generative capabilities. This evolution foresees a range of improvements, including
heightened levels of natural language understanding, intricately refined conversation dynamics,
and a more nuanced approach to content generation.

These anticipated advancements in LLMs suggest a future where generative AI not only
comprehends language intricacies at an advanced level but also responds with a heightened
contextual awareness, contributing to more accurate, contextually relevant, and nuanced content
creation. The ongoing development of LLMs is instrumental in pushing the boundaries
of generative AI, promising a future where language models can interact with users in a manner
that mirrors a deeper comprehension of context, subtleties, and the intricacies of human
communication.

2. Multimodal AI Integration

The trajectory of generative AI is steering towards seamless Multimodal AI Integration. In

the future, generative AI models are anticipated to effortlessly incorporate information from
diverse modalities, encompassing text, images, and audio. This integration marks a pivotal
advancement, unlocking the potential to develop comprehensive and interactive generative
systems.

These futuristic models are poised to demonstrate the remarkable capability to

simultaneously generate content across a spectrum of media types, creating a harmonious

DEPARTMENT OF CHE 17 EKNMMPTC KALLIASSERY

SEMINAR REPORT 2024 GENERATIVE AI & CREATIVE APPLICATIONS

convergence of textual, visual, and auditory elements. The integration of multiple modalities not
