Challenges with Creativity in AI

The speaker discusses the limitations of current language models when it comes to generating creative content. They mention that when language models interact with each other or generate content based on their own past output, the quality tends to deteriorate and lacks true creativity. The speaker shares their own experiments with AI-generated games and stories, which fell short of producing truly creative content. They express optimism that future generations of models, such as GPT-4, may show more promise, but acknowledge that the current state of creativity in AI is still limited.
