[We] read a just published article in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General (JEP:G). The paper (w 3 studies) is on the impact of using gen-AI on creativity. The paper proposes an inverted U: people are most creative with moderate levels of AI use. Uri’s critiques how the data was interpreted and instead offers a linear relationship between AI use and creativity.
My fascination with the combination of high and low has always been a big driver within my work. People who are interested in things deemed as high brow or high art or left of centre seem to feel that undercutting art with something low brow or mass produced degrades the work and people who are more interested in things deemed as low art or popular or utilizing a directness in language seem to find the acknowledgement of theory or history as pretentious. I enjoy the in-between space that this creates.
