    And who is to say that we humans don’t process creativity exactly the same way? By borrowing from things we encounter.

    Even the earliest creative expats of humans was just things we saw in nature, which we drew on cave walls.

    We humans just have more experience since we existed longer, so the line feels a lot more blurred.

    I also encountered games made by humans that were so boring I couldn’t manage more than 10 minutes.

      That’s part of it, but it’s definitely not all of it.

      There’s more creativity in the average prompt than there is in any response I’ve ever seen from ChatGPT.

      If creativity were as simple as mashing a few things together as you’re saying, ChatGPT would be there already because that’s obviously what it’s doing.

      Me too, but that’s an indictment of a single creator or team’s idea that was boring, not an indictment of a system. This thing was basically a framework with the llm being the central “creator” at the center. It would find the most boring aspects of the prompts and lean into them. This is of course a subjective assessment, but I’d argue that it’s not an uninformed one.
