It’s incredible, really, that by 1964 we had both Barthes’s Mythologies and McLuhan’s Understanding Media, and 60 (!) years later, scholars of media or cultural studies are still fighting to maintain wispy boundaries around their tiny array of interests.

Are LLMs 🤖 as creative as humans 👩‍🎓? Not quite! Introducing CREATIVITY INDEX: a metric that quantifies the linguistic creativity of a text by reconstructing it from existing text snippets on the web. Spoiler: professional human writers like Hemingway are still far more creative…
