Show me an LLM who can compose, paint, write after just going to school and without a large dataset.
I am sure any Human could, even if never seen a painting before, or read literature or seen a famous musician.
And 4 years is nothing in Art.
If you look at Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Neoclassicism you got around 100 years between each and 50 years between Impressionism , Modern Art and so on. For Jazz, Blues Hip Hop its around 20 to 40 years.
Maybe when LLMs have their own Cultural background they are ready to attack creativity :-)
