Both human cognition and machine cognition are characterized with uncertainty,but there are four basic modes:memory-driven experience mode,knowledge-driven reasoning mode,association-driven creation mode,and hypothesis-driven discovery mode.Humans,as carbon-based beings,have their imagination and creativity forced out of them over a long period of survival and reproduction,with a complex cellular biology basis.Silicon-based machines are not artificial life.Machine intelligence is not entangled with consciousness,desire,emotion,or belief;it is the humans who control the machine's cognition,remains consistently instrumental,has no curiosity of its own,and is unlikely to self-replicate hardwired bodies.Most cognitive machines will not be very innovative;but if the machine is pre-programmed with a suitable cognitive core,can modify memories or generate new memories in new working environments,has a rich and powerful ability to perceive and act interactively with the environment,and can grow cognitively in the process of ascending cognitive spirals of uncertainty,there is a possibility of creativity.Creation comes from imagination,and imagination comes from abstraction,association and interaction in cognitive activities.Creation is a rare cognitive performance of very few intelligent machines in a specific environment.Machines learn,self-correct,self-grow,personalize,and violently think in constant learning and practice,with advantages far beyond the reach of carbon-based life.When cognitive self-growth enters a critical state,a thick,sudden surge of creativity can be expected.Such epiphanies are small probability events that are nurtured and extended by machines in repeated iterations of interactive cognition with the external world,but it is inevitable that they will happen once.The creation of machines is an in vitro extension of human creation,and the result of human-machine mission alignment,symbiotic co-creation,and repeated iterations.
