From Gods to mere mortals, creativity has been studied throughout the last decades as an intrinsic human capability of bringing something into existence. When computers are added to the equation, discussion arises. Numerous authors have defended the inexistence of computational creativity. However, if we consider the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI), and focus on the cases of hallucinations in artistic creation, can AI hallucinations constitute a creative input into the creative process alongside a human agent? The present work proposes a literature review to understand what creativity means, if the phenomena of hallucinations can be considered creative by themselves and if they can serve the creative process. Here, it is shown that AI hallucinations can be creative and can be an input in the process of artistic creation under the artist’s appreciation. This paper offers another point of view in favour of computational creativity, that aims to contribute to a fruitful interaction between artists and AI.
