083: Can Computers Think More Creatively Than Humans? - a podcast by Drew Boyd

Do you think computers will be able to do creative thinking as humans do? The idea of artificial intelligence has been around for a very long time. And since then, it has been rising in popularity. But what are the limits to it? How far will technology go in taking over this important task? 

You have probably been using technology to take over many things you're doing today. Think about robotics such as the robotic vacuum or a robotic lawnmower. Now, what would it take to have a machine or computer do systematic structured methods? 

The point of this podcast is to make the case that you can be more creative thinking by structuring your brain, using it in a systematic way, and regulating your thinking. Will computers be able to do the same, and even better than you? 

Today, let’s try to examine this closely.

In this episode you’ll hear:

1. The 3 steps of the SIT method: how can a computer fulfill each step?
2. The 5 tools of SIT
3. Why my bet is on humans when it comes to parts of creative thinking
4. Let's focus on what humans can do to think in structured ways!
