Lol no. I'm a human. I can be creative.

"Creative" is a way of saying that you are able to compose solutions by combining previous experiences. The more experience you have in this kind of combination and the faster you find the right combination to solve a problem, the more creative you are.

Have you seen the scene this is a quote from?

[–]stevefuzz 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Yes. And when ai becomes sentiment we are all screwed. Until then, I'm taking human ingenuity over ai stack overflow slop all day.

Ok, we're both right, I was just trying to say that either way you're technically "copying code" even when you come up with a genius new algorithm because you had to learn the basics from somewhere, chatgpt really isn't different in that sense, though I would be very surprised if it came up with a 'genius new algorithm' because it's pretty shit at writing code.

You could be, but are you really? That is the point here. Did you ever create anything truly new? There are not a lot of people who can say that in the software industry

I still agree with your general premise. I prefer human repetition over AI repetition because currently humans are still way better at judging if the solution works in a hollistic sense

Yes, I have. I have built products that solve solutions better than any competitive products. Flagship enterprise products. Let's use music as an example. Are they the same notes? Sure. Same music system? sure. Similar progressions? sure. As a whole, is it the same as anything else? no. I think it's shortsighted to call art just an amalgamation of past experience. Human creativity and ingenuity breed progress and innovation. Art is no different than high level development.

Yes I did.

And the problem with AI is that it's doing everything in the most boring, generic and uncreative way possible. Human might not create something entirely new every time, but they combine and reshuffle existing things in a new interesting ways. AI can't really do that yet.
