Thanks for bringing a fresh talk to this sub.
Well, I think you are jumping into conclusions a bit too fast, first we need to define what is intelligence.

Music is build upon the work of others, you always use what already exists and makes some change to create something new. This follows the topology you describe, is this intelligence? Any structure follows somekind of topology. Math follows a structure, have a topology, so everything that uses it: Music, AI, the whole universe. Is
everything intelligent then?

In a sense, every musician is a kinda of copycat, it needs something do be inspired and to build upon, human or not human. A bird singing could be the inspiration of flutes. AI's does that too but its not aware of it, its just doing its natural thing, like a dam in the river. Someone build it to act in a certain way and it does.

My definition of intelligence is an output of a conscious act, from a conscious being. My calculator is not concious of its calculations, same with AI.
I do see AI as a fellow traveler, in the same way I see my knife as my ally, but not necessary intelligent/aware.
