Why Generative AI is Not Creative AI Yet | Towards AI
If I don’t know about you, but ChatGPT and Gemini have become my work assistants. I try to make them do the boring parts of my job so that I can focus on the interesting ones. Sadly, they don’t give me the results I want, but they give me just enough to tweak it to get what I want. If I were building a Machine Learning model I would have to go through the sklearn documentation multiple times to get an idea about the syntax of various functions and modules. But with Gen AI tools, the syntax of anything-I-need appears in seconds. Now, I use the extra hours I saved on the syntax to figure out the technical aspects of the model building. Logic requires creativity, and creativity leads to fun. So, Gen AI tools have made working more fun for me. But at the same time, this question keeps looming over me: “Will AI one day be good enough to do the work I do?”
I can’t give an unchanging answer to this question. My research on this topic has taught me that with the current capabilities of these AI tools, they aren’t (gratefully) going to replace me today.
