I'm thinking about how Austin Kleon describes the process of creativity in his book Steal Like an Artist. So I went into ChatGPT and asked for a pithy summary of the book regarding creativity. Here what it came up with. Remember this book was written before AI became so readily available.

Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon argues that creativity is about remixing and building upon the ideas of others, rather than creating something entirely original. Kleon emphasizes that no idea is born in isolation; instead, creative work is the result of borrowing, adapting, and transforming the influences around you. The key is to find inspiration from various sources, then remix and reshape them into something uniquely your own. By embracing curiosity and continuous learning, anyone can develop their creative voice.

Isn't this exactly what AI software is doing?...

Our job is to stay ahead of it rather than to fear it.
