Experts claim that robots are not likely to become creative in the near future. To automate a function, explicit and thorough instruction is required about how to accomplish creative goals. It’s true that algorithms can be designed to create infinite paintings. However, it’s hard, if not impossible, to teach said algorithm how to tell what makes one painting remarkable and another worthless. Another issue here is that it’s hard to make automated the process of combining ideas across many sources that makes up the foundation of creativity in humans.
