Theory

AC practitioners often ask 'what is creativity'? If a program creates art is the program the artist or is the programmer the artist? In this sense, and due to the difficulty of defining creativity, there are differing opinions on whether solutions generated by computer programs are ''creative''.

Practice

Some approach the problem as an emergent property. Some approach it with genetic algorithms. Some approach it with artificial neural networks.
Artificial creativity is used in computer-generated music (see algorithmic composition), linguistics, artificial intelligence, automated design, and automated invention.
