Probing and inducing combinational creativity in vision-language models

Abstract

The ability to combine existing concepts into novel ideas stands as a fundamental hallmark of human intelligence. Recent advances in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) like GPT-4V and DALLE-3 have sparked debate about whether their outputs reflect combinational creativity–defined by M. A. Boden (1998) as synthesizing novel ideas through combining existing concepts–or sophisticated pattern matching of training data. Drawing inspiration from cognitive science, we investigate the combinational creativ
