yes, i agree they are not very creative, by design, they can remix and repurpose and create interesting connections, which is much similar to how i think humans are creative, but i don't think they are really prone to that, (and it's not what i asked there), asking them to write a story is likely to be very disappointing (and i wouldn't want to do that), but my point was about being powerful at arguing to shape culture.

I'm sure if i asked for a friendlier voice, trying to be relatable and use empathy to convince me (which, to argue against veganism is probably quite hard, i'm not sure i want to see it), i would have gotten that.

But to get something creative, i think you have to yourself put some creativity into the prompt, it only completes what you come up with.

I think we also juge these machines more harshly because we want them to impress before giving them credit, if you ask people to come up with chants, then shuffle them up, you might rate the LLMs one higher.
