Art, social thought... and even science proceeds in small evolutionary steps with many iterations of 'the similar'. AI can do 'evolutionary' better than humans. And then there is a REVOLUTIONARY jump. Then there is a Jackson Pollock... then there is a Citroen DS... then there is Jazz. AI can't do that. Even if AI had the idea of painting soup cans, it would not pursue the underlying alienation... because it feels no alienation... and the idea is too riduculous to pursue. AI can't truly revolutionize because it has no basis for deciding that a truly revolutionary idea has any value. Something clicks and resonates in the human mind and only then is it accorded value.

It's heart warming to know there is at least one other, on a concrete level.
