It is. And I bet most people would agree with GP. Most people (including engineers building these systems) have experienced surprise with some of the outputs of these models. Is there anything better to gauge creativity by than perceived surprise?

- brabel 3y agoIf it were purely random it would generate rubbish.
- JohnFen 3y agoNot necessarily, but even in the cases where that's true, there will be the occasional result that surprises (in a good way).
- kevindamm 3y agoThis reminds me of when I would be surprised by AI bots I coded up for video games. Yeah, sometimes they beat me, and their strategies were often a mix of RNG and heuristics so I was certainly surprised by their behavior on many occasions. But would I consider them creative? No. Would they fool some people into thinking they had creativity and agency? Sure.
