In the diploma thesis 'The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Visual Art', I explore the exciting world of the intersection of art and artificial intelligence and how this interaction is transforming the way we understand and create visual art. The thesis provides deep insight into how artists and visual creators in the entertainment industries use advanced AI algorithms to expand their creativity and transcend the boundaries of traditional artistic fields. The question of whether AI can become a creator will establish a lively debate about the role of the artist as a co-creator with the machine.

It will explore how the use of AI influences the perception of visual art and how viewers perceive and interpret works created by an artist in collaboration with a machine. Throughout the entire diploma thesis, it will be clear that the impact of artificial intelligence on visual art is both exciting and challenging. The thesis offers a rich understanding of this complex relationship between human creativity and technological advancement, and emphasises that the combination of art and artificial intelligence opens up endless possibilities for creating and experiencing visual artworks.

It has explored the past, present and future of the development of artificial intelligence, as without the bigger picture, the comprehension of the average person in relation to the most advanced technology in the world is almost always lagging behind. With an in-depth review of artworks created using AI algorithms, the thesis will also explore the ethical dilemmas associated with artificial intelligence in art and the question of copyright in the context of artistic collaboration with machines. Furthermore, it will examine the impact of AI on the shaping of artistic trends and how technological advancement shapes the aesthetics and concepts that prevail in contemporary visual art.

The research will also highlight the role of AI in the democratisation of art, as it enables a wider circle of people to express their creativity and inventiveness, regardless of traditional artistic skills. The discussion will also cover potential challenges that arise when integrating AI into the creative process, including technical difficulties, and how these challenges affect the final artistic product. It will also examine the responses of the artistic community and the public to art created using AI, and how perceptions of the artist and artistic value are changing in this context.

The thesis will also address the question of how art created with the help of AI communicates with traditional artistic concepts such as originality, authenticity and subjectivity.
