• Title: The Innovation Paradox: Concept Space Expansion with Diminishing Originality and the Promise of Creative AI
• Authors: Serhad Sarica, Jianxi Luo,
• Abstract summary: Our statistical analysis of TechNet reveals a linear rather than exponential expansion of the overall technological concept space. These trends can be attributed to the constraints of human cognitive abilities to innovate beyond an ever-growing space of prior art. Integrating creative artificial intelligence into the innovation process holds the potential to overcome these limitations and alter the observed trends in the future.

• Abstract: Innovation, typically spurred by reusing, recombining, and synthesizing existing concepts, is expected to result in an exponential growth of the concept space over time. However, our statistical analysis of TechNet, which is a comprehensive technology semantic network encompassing over four million concepts derived from patent texts, reveals a linear rather than exponential expansion of the overall technological concept space. Moreover, there is a notable decline in the originality of newly created concepts. These trends can be attributed to the constraints of human cognitive abilities to innovate beyond an ever-growing space of prior art, among other factors. Integrating creative artificial intelligence (CAI) into the innovation process holds the potential to overcome these limitations and alter the observed trends in the future.

  We create concept-enriched models that incorporate concept information into existing architectures. In particular, we propose Concept-Guided Diffusion Conditional, which can generate visual representations of concepts, and Concept-Guided Prototype Networks, which can create a concept prototype dataset and leverage it to perform interpretable concept prediction. These results open up new lines of research by exploiting pre-existing information in the quest for rendering machine learning more human-understandable.

  We propose a Separable Multi-concept Eraser (SepME) to eliminate unsafe concepts from large-scale diffusion models. The latter separates optimizable model weights, making each weight increment correspond to a specific concept erasure. Extensive experiments indicate the efficacy of our approach in eliminating concepts, preserving model performance, and offering flexibility in the erasure or recovery of various concepts.

  We present the task of creative text-to-image generation, where we seek to generate new members of a broad category. We show that the creative generation problem can be formulated as an optimization process over the output space of the diffusion prior. We incorporate a question-answering Vision-Language Model (VLM) that adaptively adds new constraints to the optimization problem, encouraging the model to discover increasingly more unique creations.

  We propose a classification of the creative system with a hierarchy of 5 classes, showing the pathway of creativity evolving from a mimic-human artist to a Machine artist in its own right. In art creation, it is necessary for machines to understand humans' mental states, including desires, appreciation, and emotions, humans also need to understand machines' creative capabilities and limitations. We propose a novel framework for building future Machine artists, which comes with the philosophy that a human-compatible AI system should be based on the "human-in-the-loop" principle.
