A book about human creativity in the age of generated images.
2026-10-12

When software produces an image in seconds, our perception of artistic work changes. Does a hand-made piece lose value, or can its uniqueness become more visible?
Originality has a human story
In “Die Kunst und die Künstliche Intelligenz,” York P. Herpers examines the individual qualities of human art. Gesture, personal perspective and an artist’s decisions give work its particular character. Digital and physical creations need not be judged by identical standards.
Inspiration rather than replacement
AI can also help artists explore variants and possible directions. That does not erase the importance of authorship and intention. The book offers a point of departure for many small conversations about originality, signatures, artistic value and the place of tools in creative practice.
