I think creativity is much more linked to a form of evolution (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_on_the_shoulders_of_giants https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_on_the_shoulders_of_g...) than "new" things popping out of nowhere.
- avaer 22d ago"New" is a social construct, not something embedded in the system. The deeper you look the less "new" things seem. Creativity is an entity's propensity to decrease entropy in a system by creating more order in structures (not necessarily "new"). Humans have a hard time understanding either; evolution of both genes and memes is so many orders beyond what a human brain can process. It's easier to invent religions than to grok reality.
