I think the key is that an LLM can't have ideas. Its creative endeavors aren't creative. Art is about the craft and the message and an LLM lacks that context. Like. The best an LLM can do is produce the kinds of music Drake does that is meant to pacify people into continuous consumption
I had a similar thought after I wrote this. LLMs aren't creating anything so much as style-copying. They're unique productions, insomuch as rearranging notes or pixels makes something unique, but I think creativity requires conscious agency, which LLMs definitely do not have.
Also, I don't need to copy the entirety of Drake's discography to produce music like his, which is an aspect of human creativity that LLMs currently lack.
