AI and the Artist

This piece was a submission for an assignment that allowed students almost complete freedom with what they chose to investigate. I decided to write this paper. As many have already noted, the recent technological advancements of artificial intelligence may transform the academic, artistic, and occupational worlds in ways we haven’t seen before. I think that we have seen this before. This paper analyzes how AI could affect the artistic world by applying a lens of Romanticism to current sources. I hope this will be enlightening.
