It’s interesting. Creativity might not be different in effect to “adding some randomness”, but it is different in cause. If the effect is indistinguishable, this distinction may seem sentimental. But take the idea to its limit. If an A.I. told you that it loved you, that would be practically different as a mere effect of added randomness than as an expression of a cause. A piece of text stripped of human context is no different than one made by a bona-fide human. But language without human context, would not be human. Two people saying the exact same thing may have entirely different meanings. Etc. And of course, this is still extremely abstract. People aren’t “contexts”.
