Leveraging AI to enhance human creativity
summary
Argues machines lack bodies, lived experience and therefore cannot match human intelligence, while machine learning can excel at speed and scale but only in narrow ways; shows concrete projects where AI augments creativity: training a digital beatboxing twin for Reeps One that returns novel sounds and unlocked new techniques, giving an artist access to machine vision tuned to people movement rather than cars, and building Secret Garden XR with IoT, spatial audio and ML to create emotional virtual encounters — all working as amplifiers, not replacements.
