I don't think alpha go is a good example here. It play with strange brilliance, but I wouldn't call that creativity. If you care to elaborate on why you said this I'm curious to hear your rational. To me, creativity is really about generation of "aesthetic novelty" which is hard to get from a ML algorithm that is trying to approximate patterns in training data. Eventually, there will be models trained on a wide variety of art, music, stories, etc that can recognize aesthetic and structural isomorphism between mediums (say between a grizzly picture and death metal), then we'll lose our competitive advantage. I don't think we're nearly so close to that as the singularity types would have us believe though.
