that's the exact argument made against chess engines - are they "really" playing chess?
What's to say that the brain works different than people imagine creativity to be? That we think we are creative might be an illusion, because the brain is tricking you into thinking that you creatively came up with an original idea, when the reality is that the idea came from a long list of training data that one might've been exposed to all his life.
And who's to say that brute force, and statistical methods of producing content is not creative?
