No my post reeks of my thinking that machines are or will be capable of the same creativity that we attribute to ourselves. I never said that creative thought mostly being derivative means it's not creative, or that it's a bad thing. I merely made a point as we see a machine, pointing and laughing at it, that we shouldn't throw stones when we live in glass houses. But the reaction is certainly interesting. I wonder how many of you believe that humans are magical and that it's impossible to create a sentient machine, even given millenia, or infinite time. I believe it's possible. I don't believe that we're any more magic than a plant, there are many species with much more to their DNA than we have.
