When studying the usage of the AI in arts, the research strategies can be rooted in several key foundations in the domain of social philosophy.

Criteria for the decision between the aforementioned strategies include answers to the following questions. Firstly, the question about the nature of motivation that guides subjects of creative activity. Secondly, the question about the paradigm in the domain of social philosophy that constitutes the basis of the research. Finally, the question about the worldview and values of social groups that are in the focus of research attention. |
