Researchers found a brain circuit that controls creativity.

Searchers find gold if they search long enough. Modern technology. Like AI and sensor combinations are tools that can make miracles, new high-accuracy sensor-AI combinations can find new structures in the brains. And new sensors found the most holy thing in the human brain. 

That is the brain circuit that controls creativity. That thing is the most fundamental finding in human history. Things like new types of magnetoencephalography, MEG sensors can search and AI can compile details from the people's brain. That means they can make large-scale compile from many individuals. So they can search for creative people, and then those systems scan their brains. 

After that the AI searches for similarities in those people's brains. Then it can compile that information with people who are not creative. If only creative people have certain types of brain structures that help to find them by using MEG. The system can also search for similarities in the DNA of those people. And because genomes that control the human brain advance are known the system can search the base pairs that create those structures.

*******************************************************************

*Researchers analyzed 857 participants across 36 fMRI brain imaging studies to identify a common brain circuit for creativity.

*They mapped this circuit in healthy individuals and then predicted how brain injuries and neurodegenerative diseases might influence creativity.

*The study found that changes in creativity depend on where the brain is affected—injuries in certain areas may either disrupt or enhance creative abilities.

"Transcranial magnetic stimulation" (schematic diagram). Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive neurotherapy, a form of brain stimulation in which a changing magnetic field is used to induce an electric current at a specific area of the brain through electromagnetic induction. An electric pulse generator, or stimulator, is connected to a magnetic coil connected to the scalp. The stimulator generates a changing electric current within the coil which creates a varying magnetic field, inducing a current within a region in the brain itself" (Wikipedia, Transcranial magnetic stimulation)

The thing is that transcranial magnetic stimulation, TMS, or Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, rTMS are tools that can also stimulate and activate other brain areas than just the area that controls depression. The knowledge of creativity and the brain circuits that control it offers the route to understanding, the brain's way to handling abstraction. 

This ability makes us superior to other species. The ability to control creativity, or activate creativity are things. That is very important in working life. The AI takes our mechanical jobs. So, we must focus on the things that make us humans. The machine is better in mechanical work. So, why don't start to focus on things there is needed creativity and the ability to handle abstractions. 

We can try to start the competition with robots with stamina and strength. We can try to beat AI in so-called mechanical coding. And probably we will lose. We should map things that are difficult or impossible for AI and focus on them. But the choice is us. 

By the way...

When we think that AI is a bad compositor we are wrong. If we think. That composition is a series of sound effects that please us, the AI can make a composition that we cannot resist. This requires that the AI can search pleasure centers in our brains. 

The idea is that AI can observe our brain areas that control pleasure. When AI creates sound it searches how that sound activates that brain area. And then it creates a sound series that deepens that pleasure. This means the AI can make sound series that we cannot resist.

The AI and creativity.

 

The AI can make programming more effective than ever before. However, the quality of the code can decrease. In the same way, AI can make inflation into computer art. 

Maybe AI will not destroy the world. But it will change it forever. Things like creativity are now possible without a long time and drawing skills. And that makes the AI a fundamental tool for publishers. The images below this part of the text are AI-created. The creation of those images took about 30 minutes. And that thing tells how easy is to use the AI. That is a fantastic and sad thing. The creation of nice images doesn't require any kind of drawing skills. 

The user must only describe those images to the AI and then it creates those images. AI is a tool that can kill real creativity. 

I think that the images that Bing created are examples of how people will start to make things using AI. The AI is effective. Business life respects effective people. Even if we think. That AI will not advance anymore. Or advancing is slower than calculated. The ability to create things like texts and other things like images are things that keep the AI an interesting tool. 

AI is one of the most successful things in the history of the Internet. It's abilities and solutions that people can create with it are expanding. Developers innovate many new things using AI. The AI is the tool that makes coding effective. 

When we think about computer programs in the 1980s. Things, like the Commodore 64 ran good-looking, pretentious software, and modern computers that ran very sophisticated programs. Sometimes I thought about what modern computers can do if their programs are written with the same accuracy as Commodore-64's programs. 

We must say that. In the time of the Commodore 64, or C-64, developers made thicker code. The code was effective, because of the limits of the systems. But today large mass memories and network-based systems make it possible for modern coders to leave things like "killed lines" or "empty code" in the programs. In the time of C-64, the code was made using effective programming languages. 

Today programming languages make so-called bad or empty marks in the program. The programming languages are versatile. But that makes them a little bit complicated. Semi-automatic encoding systems create less effective code.  In the 1980's. Programmers were some kind of engineers. They were trained for years. Today the programmers are trained 9 months or even less. They use prepared libraries. And that means coding faced inflation. 

The AI is the tool that can make the code following descriptions that the user writes into it. The thing is that those AI's or large language models, LLMs are the tools that make the coding more effective than ever before. The thing is that. The AI will not make complete or perfect code. It makes code effective way, and effectiveness is the word for the day. Modern computers are things that have powerful memories and processors. They can handle less effective code than C-64. 

The trend has been this. The code and how effective it is doesn't matter. The number of accepted lines is the thing that means something.  This means that things like timetables. And requirements for creating very much code in a short time and other things. Like acceptance percent force people to use AI to create code for new programs.
