I dont think this is true. Creativity happens when you combine/blend prior knowledge. We don't magically create new information without prior meaning.

TikTok acts likes this and the remix is like a blending/combining prior creativity that leads to continuous new creativity.

This very easily refuted, then no creativity is possible because who was going to create the "first knowledge"
Your refutations is even more easily refuted. First knowledge is created by observing the world around us. Mimickry of the natural world is all around us, you even see it in animals.
So you could create the knowledge without imitating others. Try again. The second time maybe will be better. That without entering in the discredited philosophical position of empiricism for epistemology.
