"Can it, or will it, ever be capable of true creativity...."
I suppose it all depends on what you recognize as creativity, etc.  I would argue it has already done these things in spades.  Today it is better at reading some kinds of x-rays than any human.  It has proven math conjectures that humans have struggled with and failed to come close to proving for the last 100 years.  Someone else would argue neither of those things involve any creativity at all.  Both are simply cases of a person doing enough trials and errors and they will get the answer most of the time.  Based on that argument I would suggest humans have yet to show any significant sign of creativity.
