Creative machines: The next frontier for artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence can solve routine tasks but still struggles to be creative or collaborate with us. Imagine if machines were as creative and as collaborative as humans. By working together with a creative computer intelligence, you might produce a beautiful piece of art in only a few hours. But even though artificial intelligence keeps improving, this dream is still far away. It turns out that teaching computer programs to play chess is much easier than teaching them to help us write symphonies.
