Agency is a key part of that spark, but we have done all sorts of research into agency and providing goal based agents into an AI model framework incorporating LLMs as well as other optimizers and solvers I think will provide the majority of that spark. The process of creativity depends on both internal agency and goal setting unmoored by external dictation and semantic synthesis of abductively reasoned concepts, with an aesthetic that feels into the goal based optimizer. These are things that can be simulated to the point that while there may be an uncanny valley somewhere it’ll be close enough to be hard to distinguish.

But I do wonder if the practical utility of such an entity is worth the amount of effort and capital required to build and sustain it. I suspect it’ll be more a novelty than a practical tool.
