New technologies, and in particular artificial intelligence, are drastically changing the nature of creative processes. Computers are playing very significant roles in creative activities such as music, architecture, fine arts, and science. Indeed, the computer is already a canvas, a brush, a musical instrument, and so on. However, we believe that we must aim at more ambitious relations between computers and creativity. Rather than just seeing the computer as a tool to help human creators, we could see it as a creative entity in its own right. This view has triggered a new subfield of Artificial Intelligence called Computational Creativity.

Can AI Create Visual Arts?


Stable Diffusion with ControlNet

So how does it work? We've covered Stable Diffusion frequently before. It's a neural network model trained on millions of images scraped from the Internet. But the key here is ControlNet, which first appeared in a research paper titled "Adding Conditional Control to Text-to-Image Diffusion Models" by Lvmin Zhang, Anyi Rao, and Maneesh Agrawala in February 2023, and quickly became popular in the Stable Diffusion community. Typically, a Stable Diffusion image is created using a text prompt (called text2image) or an image prompt (img2img). ControlNet introduces additional guidance that can take the form of extracted information from a source image, including pose detection, depth mapping, normal mapping, edge detection, and much more. Using ControlNet, someone generating AI artwork can much more closely replicate the shape or pose of a subject in an image. - Funky AI-generated spiraling medieval village captivates social media | Benj Edwards - ARS Technical ...

Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) & Art

Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) have found applications in various fields, including art, where they are used to create, analyze, and enhance various forms of artistic content. Here are some ways RNNs are used in the realm of art:

  • Generating Artistic Text: RNNs can be trained on large text corpora, including literature, poetry, and other forms of written art, to generate text that mimics the style and tone of famous authors or poets. This is often referred to as "text generation" or "text completion."
  • Generating Visual Art: RNNs can be used to generate visual art, such as paintings or drawings. Artists and researchers have trained RNNs on databases of existing artwork to create new pieces of art that capture certain styles or themes. For instance, the style transfer technique uses RNNs to blend the styles of different artworks.
  • Image and Video Processing: RNNs are used for various image and video processing tasks in the art domain. For instance, they can be used for image captioning, where the network generates textual descriptions of images. They can also be used for video generation, manipulation, and enhancement.
  • Artistic Style Transfer: Style transfer techniques, often using variants of RNNs, allow artists and creators to apply the artistic style of one image to another. This can lead to visually appealing and unique artistic effects.
  • Interactive Art Installations: RNNs can be employed in interactive art installations, where they analyze input from sensors, cameras, or other sources and generate responsive and dynamic artistic content. This can create immersive and engaging experiences for viewers or participants.
  • Art Critique and Analysis: RNNs and other neural network models can be used to analyze and critique artworks based on various parameters, such as composition, color usage, and style. This can help artists and art enthusiasts gain insights into the artistic qualities of a piece.
  • Art Restoration and Preservation: RNNs can assist in the restoration and preservation of art by helping to reconstruct damaged or faded artwork based on existing fragments and historical data.
  • Art Market Predictions: RNNs, along with other machine learning techniques, can be used to analyze trends in the art market, predict future art market developments, and assist collectors and investors in making informed decisions.
