I'm surprised it doesn't touch on "creativity" which is a form of BS. So is being able to summarize or extract books and papers.

Unless it's mechanical work, it requires some form of BS, and that's why we've traditionally been so much better at this than machines. We've never been able to create "BS machines" before, so this completely shifts the paradigm.

I would argue that creativity involves generating new ideas through a combination of divergent thinking (to imagine new associations between unrelated things) and convergent thinking (to bring a relational model from one domain into another), and is orthogonal to Frankfurt’s conception of BS as defined by indifference to the objective truth or falsity of a fact claim.
