Cognitive Neuroscience,AI and Creavitiy:The Tenth National Symposium on Creativity(Part Two)
The 10th National Conference on Creativity focused on cutting-edge areas of creativity research,including the cognitive neural mechanisms of creativity and the impact of artificial intelligence(AI)on creativity.At the conference,researchers applied advanced technologies such as Event-Related Potentials(ERP),Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy(fNIRS),and Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging(fMRI)to explore the cognitive neural mechanisms of creativity at both individual and team levels.These studies revealed the neural basis of individual creativity and the collaborative foundation of team creativity,providing detailed analyses of the factors affecting creativity,from dynamic changes in brain activity to the neural mechanisms involved in team collaboration.Regarding the relationship between AI and creativity,the conference addressed several key topics.Firstly,AI anxiety emerged as a significant issue,reflecting public concerns about the potential negative impact of AI on creativity.These concerns include fears that AI might replace human creativity and innovation capabilities.Secondly,researchers explored the potential of virtual teams composed of AI and humans in collaborative creativity,analyzing how this cross-disciplinary cooperation can foster innovation and the challenges it may face.Lastly,the conference discussed methods for evaluating creative products using AI,including how AI can be used to assess and optimize the quality of creative outputs and its practical applications in the creative industry.The conference not only provided new insights into the cognitive neural mechanisms of creativity but also offered profound perspectives on the application of AI in the field of creativity.By comprehensively addressing these cutting-edge topics,the conference laid a valuable theoretical and practical foundation for the future development of creativity research and AI applications.
