In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has gained increasing popularity in the area of art creation, by demonstrating its great potential. Research in this topic has developed AI systems able to generate creative outputs in fields such as music, painting, games, design and scientific discovery, either autonomously or in collaboration with humans. Therefore, AI also helped to analyze and study the mechanisms of creativity from a broader perspective: from the socio-anthropological to psychological, as well as cognitive impact of the autonomous creative processes of artificial intelligence. These advances are leading to new opportunities research perspectives, while also posing challenging questions related to authorship, integrity, bias and evaluation of AI artistic outputs. CREAI, the workshop on AI and creativity, tries to address these research lines and aims to provide a forum for the AI community to discuss problems, challenges and innovative approaches in the various sub-fields of AI and creativity.
Artificial Intelligence has become widespread in a large array of diferent domains: in the area of art creation, AI has gained increasing popularity by demonstrating its great potential. Recently, AI showed a certain degree of creativity in painting, composition, writing and design, but it also helped to analyze and study the mechanisms of creativity from a broader perspective to better understand the impact of the autonomous creative processes of artificial intelligence. These advances are leading to new opportunities research perspectives, while also posing challenging questions related to aspects such as authorship, integrity, bias and evaluation of AI artistic outputs.
This workshop aims to collect and bridge the gap between diferent technologies and most recent advances in the area of creative AI in terms of the enabling creation, analysis and understanding technologies. CREAI aims to analyze the relationships between AI and artistic creativity from a broad perspective.

The program provides a good overview among the diferent topics related to the area of AI
and creativity. Moreover, the program will be further enriched through two keynotes given by:
