Can an AI system be creative and, if so, what would that creativity look like? I’m skeptical about AI creativity, though recently I hypothesized that an AI system optimized for “hallucinations” might be the start of “artificial creativity.” This technology may be useful for repairing damaged works of art. Or just derivative?
