I think the difference is that humans have underlying model of reality while Chat GPT, stable diffusion and such don't have any.
When you are an novice artist it's usually bad thing to rely on your mental model of reality. Children draw like that. Instead it's better to just observe patterns of light and darkness on the model and reproduce them. But at some point of that, when you start being creative with your art it really pays off to actually know how many fingers humans do have.
It doesn't mean neural networks are completely incapable of creating the model of reality, AlphaGo creates models of Go reality that's better than human players, they just can't do that through language alone.
