progression as the foundation of true creativity?
      After my final exam and a bit of discussion as to what differentiates Artificial creativity from human creativity - a few things came up; originality, uniqueness, progression, error/accident

In this discussion I realized that although AI is capable of what seems to be creativity -  Aaron creating original works with no human input, the AIs creative abilities do not grow - there is not progression in the style or subjects of the work.

why?

     human creativity progresses, artists experiment with lines, colors, realism, abstractions, etc. They make the wrong line, spill paint, experiment with different movements, techniques and medias. Their perception of what they are trying to represent changes with their life experiences. Computer programs and artificial intelligence are not capable of this; they are made to do completely the opposite. They are made to not err, to follow a certain program, with computers there are no accidents or trial and error. If they do err and there is no gained accidental knowledge.
