Generative AI enhances individual creativity but reduces the collective diversity of novel content
A. R. Doshi and O. P. Hauser
Generative AI can boost individual creativity but risks narrowing collective novelty. In an online experiment where some writers received story ideas from an LLM, AI-assisted stories were rated more creative, better written, and more enjoyable—especially for less creative writers—yet showed greater similarity across stories. Research conducted by Anil R. Doshi and Oliver P. Hauser.
