Abstract

This paper describes a biologically inspired domain-independent technique, called genetic programming, that automatically creates computer programs to solve problems. We argue that the field of design is a useful testbed for determining whether an automated technique can produce results that are competitive with human-produced results. We present several results that are competitive with the products of human creativity and inventiveness. This claim is supported by the fact that each of the results infringe on previously issued patents. This paper presents a candidate set of criteria that identify when a machine-created solution to a problem is competitive with a human-produced result.
