I posit that periods of relatively high creativity [ in art science music literature ] coincide with periods of relatively low inequality.

ie. if everyone is working so hard to pay rent / college, nobody has time to work on side projects in the garage, or go deep into books, or dedicate spare time to a craft or do down a science research rabbit hole.

Im not sure LLMs will free up much time for people in the middle of the economy - they might produce more but get paid the same.
