In a very crude sense, we learn by observing patterns that work, and without new working patterns we can tey to come up with novel patterns. But this is much harder, especially if the new patterns require a completely different approach instead of being an incremental change. I fully expect human ability to drastically increase in several areas when computers start finding new working patterns.
