AI by design can only repeat and recombine past material. Therefore actual invention is out.

its not a huge deal. i dont need the AI to invent a replacement to the for loop or map function; i only want it to use the those tools.

I'm the one providing the invention, it's transforming my invention into an implementation; sometimes better than others.
