Human vs. Machine: The battle for authentic artistic expression in the age of AI

In Maddyness, Doron Fagelson, Senior Vice President, Media & Entertainment at DataArt, examines the increasing use of Generative AI in art, with debates on whether AI can enhance human creativity or suppress it.

“As AI continues to improve, it’s reasonable to assume that it will become even more challenging to identify which content has been created by humans, and which has been devised by the machine. While AI offers tremendous potential for the creative spheres, ranging from the art market to tech startups and everywhere in between, retaining a human touch is necessary – and that begins with human judgment.”
“Many working within the AI industry, like David Holz, the founder and CEO of Midjourney, have gone on the record clarifying that they do not see AI as a substantive threat to creativity and artmaking. “The goal is to make humans more imaginative, not make imaginative machines,” Holz told Forbes. “I think [that’s] an important distinction.” Similarly, Microsoft CTO Kevin Scott sees AI as a “copilot for everything,” a tool that can help – and not replace – creative-driven people.”
“While the aesthetic influence of AI remains to be seen, experts are arguing that the artistic process – the imaginative expression of emotion and experience – will always be as human as ever.”
