I love this topic. A couple of quick thoughts are that, as "real thinkers", we most generally limit ourselves to that which is already in our world of experience, just as AI does. We allow all of our thoughts to be governed by that which we have already experienced, thought, felt, and known, based on our own environments.
Some, however, are more adept at accessing "the consciousness". For those, more is available. As this new thought is brought into existence and new creation is created, it will, of course, be available to AI, as well. And then, for those of us who are unskilled, at least in this incarnation or period of time, at accessing the greater consciousness that exists, we also have the ability to access the new thought and creative powers of others, albeit, second hand, so to speak, though the process of AI.
Perhaps the danger is, though, that limiting ourselves to the creativity of others and filtering our experience through AI, maybe it does not exactly fit that which each one of us ultimately desires. Are we giving up our own freedom of creativity in the process?
Love this train of thought, Van! I think in philosophy, what you're discussing would fall under epistemology, or the study of "how we know what we know." We've got an upcoming post that will delve into that a little further, excited for you to read! I'm glad you're enjoying this series!
