Book I’m Reading:

The Creativity Code:

Art and Innovation in the Age of AI
by Marcus Du Sautoy

Review

“The Creativity Code is only partly a book about AI art. It is as much about how AI thinks and how it does mathematics―du Sautoy’s own special subject. And on these topics, he is thoughtful and illuminating.”―Sunday Times

“Fascinating… If all the experiences, hopes, dreams, visions, lusts, loves, and hatreds that shape the human imagination amount to nothing more than a ‘code,’ then sooner or later a machine will crack it. Indeed, du Sautoy assembles an eclectic array of evidence to show how that’s happening even now.”―The Times

“Argues reassuringly that true creativity belongs to humanity…A computer may best any human at calculation, but it lacks that snippet of ‘human code’ that lets us know when an idea is not just new but meaningful.”―New York Times Book Review

“An ambitious meditation on the meaning of creativity and consciousness.”―Wall Street Journal

“Fact-packed and funny, questioning what we mean by creative and unsettling the script about what it means to be human, The Creativity Code is a brilliant travel guide to the coming world of AI.”―Jeanette Winterson

“A wide-ranging and fact-packed tour d’horizon of current applications of artificial intelligence in mathematics and the arts.”―The Guardian

“In a classic 1950 paper, Alan Turing asked: ‘Can machines think?’ …Du Sautoy’s test is different but no less challenging: can machines be genuinely creative? The interest, just as it was for Turing, lies not so much in finding a definitive answer but in examining what the question itself might mean.”―Prospect

“Absorbing…Eloquent and illuminating.”―Nature

“Algorithms that not only duplicate human skills but learn from their mistakes are what define artificial intelligence. But du Sautoy considers the possibility of reaching another stage: machine creativity, technology that is itself capable of innovation.”―Inside Higher Ed
