As people increasingly use AI to create music, images, writing, and other creative works, how should we think about authenticity, originality, and meaning in the arts? Through the lens of philosophy and cultural theory, this talk explores both the creative potential and cultural consequences of artistic creation in an age shaped by generative technology.
