From Tool to Autonomous Agent.
Investigating the Present and Future of AI as a Creative Tool for Artists.

In 2017, I explored the concept of AI artistic agents, examining the interplay between artificial intelligence and creativity. Building on this work, this paper delves into the past, present, and future of AI, investigating the computational tools artists use and the works they create. It traces the history of technology in the arts and attempts to glimpse into the future of AI by analysing the trajectory of the technology and the evolving practices of computational artists.

With recent rapid advances in AI, we are now even closer to the holy grail of artificial general intelligence—the point in time when machines begin to think for themselves. This exploration situates itself at the cutting edge of this transformation, linking historical context with the possibilities of the future.
