Creativity is the primary driver of our cultural evolution. The astonishing potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and its possible application in the creative process poses an urgent and dramatic challenge for humanity; how can we maximize the benefits of AI while minimizing the associated risks? In this article, we identify all forms of human-AI collaboration in this realm as cyber-creativity. We introduce the following two forward-looking scenarios: a utopian vision for cyber-creativity, in which AI serves to enhance and not replace human creativity, and a dystopian view associated with the pre-emption of all human creative agency caused by the rise of AI. In our view, the scientific community is called to bring its contribution, however small, to help humanity make steps towards the utopian scenario, while avoiding the dystopian one. Here, we present a decalogue of research challenges identified for this purpose, touching upon the following dimensions: (1) the theoretical framework for cyber-creativity; (2) sociocultural perspectives; (3) the cyber-creative process; (4) the creative agent; (5) the co-creative team; (6) cyber-creative products; (7) cyber-creative domains; (8) cyber-creative education; (9) ethical aspects; and (10) the dark side of cyber-creativity. For each dimension, a brief review of the state-of-the-art is provided, followed by the identification of a main research challenge, then specified into a list of research questions. Whereas there is no claim that this decalogue of research challenges represents an exhaustive classification, which would be an impossible objective, it still should serve as a valid starting point for future (but urgent) research endeavors, with the ambition to provide a significant contribution to the understanding, development, and alignment of AI to human values the realm of creativity.
创造力是我们文化进化的主要驱动力。人工智能（AI）的惊人潜力及其在创作过程中的可能应用给人类带来了紧迫而严峻的挑战；我们如何在将人工智能相关风险降至最低的同时，最大限度地发挥其益处？在本文中，我们将这一领域中所有形式的人机协作定义为网络创造力。我们介绍以下两种前瞻性情景：一种是网络创造力的乌托邦愿景，即人工智能有助于增强而非取代人类创造力；另一种是反乌托邦观点，与人工智能崛起导致人类所有创造性行为被取代有关。我们认为，科学界应尽自己的一份力量（无论多么微小），帮助人类朝着乌托邦情景迈进，同时避免反乌托邦情景。在此，我们提出了为此目的确定的十条研究挑战，涉及以下几个方面：（1）网络创造力的理论框架；（2）社会文化视角；（3）网络创作过程；（4）创作主体；（5）共同创作团队；（6）网络创作产品；（7）网络创作领域；（8）网络创作教育；（9）伦理方面；以及（10）网络创造力的阴暗面。对于每个方面，我们简要回顾了当前的研究现状，接着确定了一个主要研究挑战，然后细化为一系列研究问题。虽然并不声称这十条研究挑战代表了详尽无遗的分类（这将是一个不可能实现的目标），但它仍应作为未来（但紧迫）研究工作的有效起点，旨在为理解、发展人工智能以及使人工智能与创造力领域的人类价值观保持一致做出重大贡献。
