Using AI to support your thinking
AI is a creative tool to help you brainstorm, research and develop ideas — not to replace your creativity.
You are the artist. AI can help spark ideas but should not be the final creator.
Ask AI to suggest emotional or symbolic connections with your theme.
Ask to suggest unusual ideas to create new directions
