Thousands of years ago, people made art, they wrote poems, came up with wonderful stories and mythology. Every culture has some form of human creativity. Whether art, music, or stories and poems passed down through generations. Creativity is a defining characteristic of human beings. To be creative is to be human.
Well, that's what I thought about as well until recently. But the recent advancements in AI make me questions if creativity is truly unique to humans.
as AI sprung out of humanity it will always have a grain of humanity in itself.
AI doing "creative" things is doing it because we like to watch it doing that.
But still I dont think there is so much special and unique to humans
>today if it's not novel or unique it's not celebrated or valued.
Yet let those things go by the wayside (any country where they experienced hyperinflation or went into decline) and the shortcomings become readily apparent.
Even just refuse pickup service -soon you get vermin and contagious diseases. Actual things to worry about.
Electricity and hospitals (neo-natal units and ER, for example).
From the Oakland warehouse fire people realized Fire Marshall safety checks have meaning and impact.
Mundane stuff makes the world go round and allows people to make mountains out of their personal molehills.

Excuses excuses my friend!
10 thousand years ago people celebrated when a big kill was brought home from the hunt.
5000 years ago people celebrated the seasonal harvests.
100 years ago you put in a good days work at a factory turning a screw but you helped make a car.
today if it's not novel or unique it's not celebrated or valued.
