creative skill and imagination, often in visual forms like painting and sculpture, with
works intended primarily for their aesthetic or emotional impact. However, art extends
beyond visual representations, including literary works like poems, fiction, and
narratives, as well as music, architecture, dance, performance, and more. What sets art
apart is its origin in the human mind, serving as both a medium for self-expression and
Over countless generations, art has evolved from its origins in cave wall
drawings to its present-day diversity of forms and media. This transformation has
shaped our cultural heritage, reflecting the changing world and human creativity. In
recent years, art has undergone a dynamic transformation in tandem with technological
mediums, including digital painting, photography, sculpture, and more. This meant that
In 1973, AI was introduced in the world of art when American computer scientist
Harold Cohen created the first-ever AI painting with AARON, the first ever computer
program that uses artificial intelligence to generate artworks (Vass, 2022). AI art or
artificial intelligence art is a program that generates art based on a set of rules created
by the programmer. AI has served as a friend to artists within the industry for numerous
decades, greatly enhancing their creative output and efficiency. Nevertheless, in recent
years, marked by the profound evolution of AI, the responsible and ethical application of
this technology has emerged as a pressing concern, casting a shadow on its impact
within the artistic community. It has also sparked ethical questions regarding art and the
role of technology within the creative process. (Clarke, 2022). This research seeks to
unravel the intricate integration of AI-generated art on the educational journey and
creative development of Arts and Design students of Dominican College of Sta. Rosa in

AI Blurring the Definition of Artist
provoking article published by American Scientist in June 2019, the profound impact of
AI on the art world is explored. AI algorithms, often fueled by vast datasets of existing
artworks, are now capable of generating a wide array of art forms, from paintings to
acoustically enchanting, blurring the demarcation lines that have historically separated
human-made and machine-made art. Consequently, artists and aficionados of art find
themselves at a crossroads, grappling with fundamental questions about the very nature
of creativity, artistic intent, and the concept of originality in an age where machines

and literary works, has prompted widespread discussions about its integration for the
creative industries. The primary concern revolves around the potential displacement of
human artists from their traditional roles, with ethical dilemmas and controversies
emerging in tandem.
In the article authored by Clarke (2022), he delved into the ethical dilemmas
outrage, perceiving the output of AI as a form of theft of their artistic trademark. Vincent
(2022) emphasized that the issue is compounded by the fact that generative AI models
are trained on vast datasets, including copyrighted materials sourced from diverse
scholars like Ridler and Eckert (n.d.) pointing out AI's limitations in handling abstract
human art, in contrast to those who depend solely on AI-generated art. While Ai art
does capture the sense of awe amongst people, its increasing prevalence has given
rise to ethical concerns and authorization issues that warrant careful examination that
remains unsure whether it can be solved or not. Nevertheless, it's important to note that
human originality, emotion, and vision remain unique and invaluable, and AI is unlikely
to replace artists. Ciftci (2023) supports this idea by mentioning that AI-generated art
lacks emotional depth and authenticity that comes with human creativity.
AI’s role in art creation has raised questions about the nature of creativity and
authorship. Chayka (2023) discusses how AI algorithms, often trained on vast datasets
of existing artworks, can produce paintings, music, and other forms of art. These AI-
generated pieces may be visually or aurally appealing, blurring the lines between
human-made and machine-made art. As a result, artists and art enthusiasts are
grappling with fundamental questions about artistic intent, expression, and originality.
The article also touches on the potential impact on traditional artists. While AI-generated
art can be impressive, some artists worry that it devalues the human creative process.
They express concerns about originality and the commodification of art in the digital

SYNTHESIS
Intelligence (AI) in the fields of art and education, accompanied by the concerns and
adjustments necessary for both creative and educational fields. The literature and
studies provided are in line with the primary aim of this research, which is to investigate
the implications of AI-generated art on the educational and creative journey of students.
Based on the interpretation of the related literature and studies that the researchers
gathered, they were able to identify how AI-generated art could impact various factors of
the creative field. This includes concerns about intellectual property, human-artist
implications, ethical considerations, the blurring of boundaries, and limitations and gaps
in terms of creativity that can be potentially overcome by the evolution of AI. The
studies not only highlighted the challenges posed by AI-generated art when it comes to
legal concerns such as intellectual property and data privacy but also its potential on
becoming a part of the curriculum for students, especially for those who are taking art-
related courses. While many studies present the obstacles that are encountered by
generative AI art, research papers by Nguyen (2023) and Egon et. al. (2023) address
the potential that AI still holds for the future, while acknowledging its flaws and
limitations at its currently immature stage (Kong, 2020). In accordance with the related
studies provided, the researchers not only acknowledge the disadvantages of AI-
generated art but also its benefits highlighted across the studies such as reduced labor
