Thanks Glenn you made an excellent point.
Ai cannot do what a human writer can do ... yet.
You made the point that combining ideas to create something new was beyond the scope of what Ai was doing now. This whole area of Ai is heating up... BIG TIME.
Matt Wolfe has a website that is a very good resource to check out much of what is going on in the Ai Universe.
Here's a link:

Additionally, I just saw a video this morning from Tesla, that claims their new ai-powered robot can thread a needle! Even people like you and I need a couple of moments to actually get the thread in the needle.
One last thing... Elon Musk said that in six months there would be a transformational change due to all the breakthroughs in Ai.
We shall see.
