Large language models (what marketing departments are calling "AI") cannot synthesize new ideas or knowledge.

Don’t know what you are talking about. GPT-4 absolutely can write new stories. What differentiates that from a new idea?

I can't tell whether you're saying I don't know what I'm talking about, or you don't know what I'm talking about.

Doesn’t matter.

When in conversation the “AI can’t have creativity/new ideas etc” argument comes up, I often get the impression it’s a protective reaction rather than a reflected conclusion.

First off all, yes they can for all practical purposes. Or, alternately, neither can humans. So the point is academic. There is little difference between the end result from an AI and a human taken at random.

Secondly, LLMs aren't really what people are talking about when they talk about AI art.

Not even the AI companies' marketing departments go that far.
