I have a bit of both. Most of my thoughts aren't really originally because I'm not playing around and go wild. This is what LLMs seem to be lacking a bit.
Most of my thoughts are things that other people have come up with as well. Aka it feels like I'm just predicting the next token based on the data that I already have.
It's only when I go to places such as "what if life at the speed of light is possible, what would that look like?" that I get to places I personally find somewhat novel. It's almost a different dimension for these guys of course since a million years can feel like 10 years to them. Yet, they're moving so fast, but time-wise they move so slow, maybe even too slow for us to understand that anything can be alive at that speed (I'm not claiming there's life at light speed by the way, I just think it's fun to imagine that there is).
