Abstract
This paper explores the philosophical foundations of collective intelligence and artificial creativity.
It proposes the Spiral Creation Model, a conceptual framework describing how creative meaning and coherence can emerge from iterative collaboration among artificial agents.
In this model, the process of idea evolution unfolds as a temporal and spatial spiral of divergence, convergence, critique, and refinement, centered on a Singular Proposition that guides the collective process.
Two key principles are introduced:
Refined Unpredictability, which captures the condition of meaningful novelty beyond randomness, and
Spatial Compression, which explains how diverse perspectives integrate into coherent creative wholes.
The paper situates this model within ongoing debates in the philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and the ethics of artificial intelligence, arguing that emergent creativity represents a new form of distributed intentionality in artificial systems.
