own creative development.
Some research suggests that AI outperforms humans in certain aspects of creativity.

Answer 1

True: statements 1, 3, and 4.

- Some research reports that consumers rate the quality of AI-generated product ideas higher than people-generated ideas. — True. Experimental studies have found AI-generated ideas judged as equal or better than human ideas in some ideation tasks and product-concept evaluations.

- Some research suggests that AI outperforms humans in certain aspects of creativity. — True. In specific measures (e.g., rapid divergent idea generation, pattern discovery, novel combinations) AI systems have outperformed humans on particular tasks.

- In most creative tasks in the workplace, people who use AI strategically are more likely to outperform people who do not. — True (with a caveat). Evidence generally shows that AI-augmented humans often outperform either humans alone or AI alone when users know how to prompt, curate, and integrate outputs; results vary by task, domain, and user skill.

False: statement 2.

- The creative abilities of AI mean that there is little need for professionals to pursue their own creative development. — False. Professionals still need creative skills (judgment, domain knowledge, framing, evaluation, ethical reasoning, and the ability to guide and improve AI outputs), and ongoing creative development remains important.
