AI Creativity and Human Enhancement: The Identity Link

The relationship between creativity and artificial intelligence has been recently discussed in both the expert community and the broader public, with the discussion being driven not only by the challenges of practice or academic interest but also significantly influenced by societal anxieties. Large Language Models (LLMs), such as Chat GPT, Midjourney, DALL-E, have become central to the dialogue on human/machine creativity. Questions arise: Can AI be truly creative and if so, is AI creativity of the same nature as human or non-human animal creativity? If we affirm both of these questions, what implications does that hold for our future selves? This contribution establishes meaningful links of personal and collective identity bridging the debates on AI creativity and human enhancement.
