Investigating the Relationship Between Ceramic Art and AI-Generated Content: A Study of Aesthetics, Creativity, And Emotional Responses in AI-Generated Ceramic Art

Abstract

Ceramic artwork is made using clay and other ceramic components. It can appear in a variety of ways, such as beautiful ceramics for use as dinnerware, tiles, sculptures, and other objects. Ceramic art is a visual art form that belongs to the plastic arts. The study aims to investigate the relationship between ceramic art and artificially intelligent (AI)-generated content. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was utilized. A systematic questionnaire with a Likert scale rating was used to collect data from 125 participants' surveys to collect information on the emotional reactions, aesthetic preferences, and authenticity views of viewers of both conventional and AI-generated ceramic artworks. The techniques of statistical analysis used for comparing works created by AI and ceramic art. The structural model examined the relationships between the constructs considering the putout assumptions, the measurement model evaluated the validity and reliability of the latent constructs. Hypothesis 3 received good support from the structural model, which showed relationships between AI-generated content and ceramic art in terms of inventiveness, emotional resonance, and aesthetics (β = 0.45, p < 0.05). The study highlights the awesome benefits and problems linked to everything, imparting mild insights to the complex interplay between ceramic art and AI-generated output. Our findings will provide precious insights for artists, technologists, and artwork fanatics, highlighting the potential of AI in enhancing artistic creativity and shaping future art paperwork.
