> Unless you think humans have magic meat then all we are really doing with "creativity" is connecting previously unconnected facts.
In the case of discovery and invention the "facts" being connected may not be things that were known before. An LLM is bound by it's training set. A human is not limited by what is currently known - they can explore (in directed or undirected fashion), learn, build hierarchies of new knowledge and understanding, etc.
