Greg Twemlow's article, "Flow, Fractals, and the Wall: Unleashing Courageous Expression in the AI Age," posits that artificial intelligence has democratised creativity, making it universally accessible rather than an innate gift. The author argues that AI facilitates "flow," a state of complete immersion, by removing traditional constraints and fostering iterative "remixing" of ideas. Twemlow contrasts this with educational systems he perceives as resistant to change, promoting compliance over courageous expression. He defines creativity as asking open questions to inspire novel solutions and introduces the Bias-Aware Assessment framework to identify individuals who thrive under pressure. Ultimately, the article encourages readers to overcome emotional barriers and "hang their art" – to express themselves fearlessly, using AI as a collaborative tool for continuous refinement.
