TY - JOUR TI - Analysing the Impact of Generative AI in Arts Education PY - 2024 DA - 2024/// JO - Informatics (MDPI) AB - This qualitative study uses paired focus groups with arts educators and students in Spanish higher education to examine how generative AI is perceived and used in arts programs. Participants reached broad consensus that generative AI can usefully support illustration-related work but cannot replace the human creative element. The study also finds that when AI tools are explicitly framed as pedagogical instruments rather than substitutes, they function as a motivating element in the learning experience. It is one of few studies capturing both educator and student perspectives together within arts HE.
