Abstract

The paper presents a comprehensive analysis on the various capabilities of ChatGPT, a chatbot developed by OpenAI that is capable of generating creative content in areas such as visual arts, poetry, and music. This study provides a comparative investigation to highlight how AI-generated works differ from those of human-generated works through a number of content pieces: realization and description of a painting, writing a Shakespeare sonnet, and creating modern rap lyrics. This comparison looks at crucial attributes of style, emotional resonance, and complexity to see how well AI models can perform in emulating different forms of human creativity. Therefore the result reflects on the wider implications for practice due to the involvement of AI within the field, before providing a view on the future artistic landscape that will be influenced by AI. The conclusion section examines in more detail the potential and limitations of AI acting as a tool for both human expression and artistic production.
