Augmenting Human Creativity with AI (Dagstuhl Seminar 25442) Dingler, Tilman Giaccardi, Elisa Rick, Steven Shklovski, Irina Wadinambiarachchi, Samangi Design Generative AI Human Creativity Human-AI Interaction The advancements of available generative AI tools have the potential to change the creative processes of writers, artists, programmers, and designers. The Dagstuhl Seminar "Augmenting Human Creativity with AI" (25442) explored the grand challenges these tools pose to the discipline of design and human creativity more generally. Over the course of three days, academic researchers and Industry experts from the fields of Human-Computer Interaction, AI, and design came together to discuss how these technologies challenge accepted ideas of human creativity and what are the implications for the creative class when AI tools are used to augment creativity on a broader scale. The discussions revolved around three core themes: critical evaluation of AI-powered creative tasks, ethical implications of integrating AI into creative processes, focusing on ensuring the responsible and equitable use of these technologies, and the societal impact of delegating creative tasks to AI systems, including the potential consequences for the creative professions and cultural landscape. The seminar’s outcomes articulated a shared research agenda that moves beyond tool-building to focus on the design of infrastructure, practice, and educational frameworks that preserve creative agency and support diverse forms of expression. The seminar produced a collective vision, one that looks beyond building better tools and discusses an agenda towards cultivating the systems, norms, and learning environments needed to keep human creativity at the centre.
