> Real intelligence is creativity

Well said.

Even Jim Keller (a key designer involved with a lot of major CPUs, in his interview with Lex Freidman) said that there might be some sort of magic, or something magical about human consciousness / the human soul. I agree with that.

That's something that a machine will never have.

I think you may be in denial. Douglas Hosftadter thought very deeply about it, wrote a book(GEB) which won a pulitzer 40 years ago, about the "magic" in the brain. He has been worried about developments in AI for 5 years now.

Can you provide some examples of creativity that you think a machine will never have?

You sound like someone who's never asked GPT-4 to write a rap battle about $SUBJECT in the style of $CELEBRITY where every word starts words starts with $LETTER..
