While they may one day be 'creative', I feel this will be the last bastion of human capability beyond AI. Luckily, the interesting thing about creative endeavors is that they are often a unique synthesis of many things. AI may create wonderful art, music, entertainment, etc., but this does not mean things created by humans won't still be valuable to other humans. Things would just be created in parallel and in communion with AI. That being said, the percentage of the population that can 'create' for income/profit may be very small. Hopefully by that point, we will create for the intrinsic value of creating and sharing, and not for money.
They can only have the perspective that was possible from the program that created them -- ultimately they're constrained by the original programmer (artist). That set of possibilities might be very large, but it's still limited.
Because art is expression, and expression is fundamental to humanity, machines won't be able to push art in the same way that humans can.
They can but it's going to take a good long while before they have the same kind of access to their physical environment to experiment like humans can. Just think about the steps between figuring out that bean water can be used in meringues for instance; not just the mental ones, but the physical ones as well.
