"We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones."

This might be one of the stupidest headlines I've ever seen

Ideas are not a commodity you stockpile. They are not an existing resource. They don't run out. Being human means you make new ones ad infinitum.

And AI is a regurgitation machine, not a creative thinking machine.
