I didn't agree with the OP but just noting this is wrong:

> These nets regurgitate the most average possible output given inputs. By definition.

You seem to be confusing the training objective with the capabilities.

How do you get from bigger LLMs being better at few shot learning to being able to generate novelties?

I don't know.

But note that this is happening at inference time, so it's not just generating the average of the input the model is trained on.
