AI and Creativity: "The Creativity Code", by Prof Marcus du Sautoy

Prof. Marcus du Sautoy on his book on AI and Creativity: "The Creativity Code"
Will a machine ever compose a symphony, write a prize-winning novel, or paint a masterpiece? And if so, would we be able to tell the difference?
Based on his most recent book The Creativity Code, Marcus du Sautoy explores the new developments in AI that are shaking up the status quo and asks how long it might be before machines come up with something creative, and
whether they might jolt us into being more imaginative in turn.
