Artificial Intelligence creates creative Portraits – creativePortraitGAN Latent Space Walk

This StyleGAN2-Ada model was created as part of the "Artificial Inspiration" project. The objective is to generate as diverse and creative forms of representation of a portrait as possible, in order to use the results subsequently as inspiration for humans to achieve new and creative results.

How will it be possible to stimulate and increase human creativity related to visual design by using resources from the field of artificial intelligence to overcome the predictable and achieve innovative, creative results? „Artificial Inspiration“ attempts to find a solution to this.
Will it be possible to break collective thought patterns through targeted, non-human stimuli and create a new level of creativity in the interaction between humans and artificial intelligence? How can we make use of the significant advances in the field of AI in recent years to build the creative process of the future in an enriching way?
The possibility of mathematically representing complex systems such as language or painting styles enables a completely new approach to a variety of topics. Connections in large amounts of data can be detected and rules can be extracted from them. Based on these rules, data can be combined with each other, resulting in outcomes that exceed what is humanly possible.
On this basis, the creative process was analyzed and compared with the possibilities of AI. The goal is to generate impulses from the linking of various data and to show new perspectives on existing problems, which inspire people to find new solutions: Artificial Inspiration.
For this purpose, a theoretical process for increasing creativity with the help of AI was developed, which essentially consists of two steps:
1. Generate as many different variations of one portrait as possible.
2. Assisting in identifying the drafts that are found to be personally inspiring by an individual.
This theoretical process was then exemplified in the project using a specific practical design task: Finding new and creative ways to represent a portrait.
