Welcome to the year 2030. All around the globe, creative studios are popping up like mushrooms. People are eager to reclaim their creativity! In recent years, AI-generated content and artwork have increasingly taken over, replacing nearly all human idea-generation processes. Time to panic? Train your grey matter now at the Creative Studio—the gym for creativity.

The Creative Studio 2030 presents an exaggerated, dystopian future scenario that explores the impact of Artificial Intelligence on our creative expression. Are we gradually unlearning creativity through the use of technology—like a muscle that withers when it is no longer used? In the future, will we be training human intelligence rather than artificial ones?
