Updating the Standard Definition of Creativity to Account for the Artificial Creativity of AI

ABSTRACTRecent developments in AI compel an update of the "standard definition of creativity." This short article cites various proposed additions to the standard definition, which point to Surprise, Value, Authenticity, and Intentionality. The latter two are the most useful when distinguishing human from artificial (machine) creativity. Artificial creativity can be contrasted with pseudo-creativity as well as human creativity.
