Restaurants serve the same menues and food taste the same

Music sounds the same

Clothes look the same

News outlets show/promote the same

Social apps have the same features

Movies are sequels, prequels, spinoffs of the same

Yeah, creativity is long dead

You should qualify much of this like "music", "movies", and your blanket of "creativity" with something like "commercially pushed". You may even have a case that creativity among the masses is stifled by sameness, overproduction, and relatively low cost from the hyperoptimization from those bland studios which makes creation intimidating to someone wanting to become some kind of artist.

But I assure you creativity is alive and well.
