People always says AI do create only variations but many successful TV shows are variations. I started watching sitcoms from the 70s and many things were copied/adapted in recent shows.

Yeah, also I think there is something about the human connection and communicating personal ideas and feelings that just isn't there with AI generated art. I could see a case for an argument that a lot of music today is recorded by artists who didn't write that music, and that they are expressing their own feelings through their performance of someone else's creation. And is it really all that different if an AI wrote something that resonated with an artist who ultimately performed it? Which for a good chunk of pop-culture regurgitations may be completely valid. But in my opinion, the best art, communicates emotion, which an experience unique to biology, AI might be able to approximate it, and sure there's a human prompting the AI who might genuinely have those feelings, but there's a hollowness to it that I struggle to ignore. But maybe I'm just getting older and will be yelling at clouds before long.
