From Algorithms to Aesthetics: A Survey of AI in Art

This survey paper explores the dynamic intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and the arts, offering a comprehensive overview of how AI technologies are revolutionizing artistic creation and expression. The paper begins with an introduction to AI in the art world, tracing its historical development and the various AI technologies that have been adopted by artists. It then delves into the realm of generative art, examining the techniques and algorithms, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and neural networks, that enable machines to create compelling artistic works autonomously. By synthesizing a wide array of research and case studies, this paper aims to provide a thorough understanding of the transformative role of AI in the arts and to spark further discussionon the future of artistic creation in the digital age.
