AI Creativity Awards explores a question at the centre of AI-assisted work: what was created by the person, what was generated by the machine, and what source material shaped the result?

Official boilerplate

AI Creativity Awards is an international awards programme for creative work shaped with AI. Across eight categories, the 2026 launch edition recognises artists, designers, filmmakers, writers, musicians, students, studios and independent makers. Every entry includes a structured disclosure covering the tools or models used, what AI generated or transformed, what remained human-directed or edited, and what source material was involved. Entries close on 1 November 2026, with results announced on 1 December 2026.
