Abstract
Artificial intelligence technology is advancing rapidly, with AIGC (Artificial Intelligence Generated Content) becoming a key driver of transformation in art creation. Based on intersubjectivity theory, this paper explores how AI art creation technologies break traditional artistic barriers and realize artistic democratization, focusing on the shift from elite-dominated to mass-participatory creation. It elaborates on the technical principles, practical applications, and social impacts of AI art creation to reveal pathways for reshaping public participation. Research results show that AI art creation’s dual value lies in reducing creative technical thresholds and establishing a new artistic value system based on distributed human-machine symbiotic creativity. Practically, it transcends the limitations of carbon-based lifeforms through silicon-based machine characteristics. This paper emphasizes that AI art creation is progressive, promotes artistic democratization, and makes art a shared cultural activity for all.
