I’ve been re-reading LOOK TO WINDWARD and just hit this passage in which Iain M Banks, fully 26 years ago, absolutely nailed the point of human creativity in a world of machine superintelligence. (This is an accomplished composer speaking with the avatar of a godlike AI Mind)

wonders if he ought to re-educate his soul to the joys of flight and stepping out onto someone else's summit.’
'Better to create your own. Come on; I've a dying man to see on his way.'

Going to have to think about this after seeing the 2020 Almeda Fire in southern Oregon use Populus fremontii as a conduit through an urban corridor. Many aspects of wildfire seem to be non-intuitive, deserve more study.
