ChatGPT-4 - Brainstorming

Using ChatGPT-4 to Brainstorm

ChatGPT can't replace your creativity, but you can use it to give yourself new ideas and perspectives.

You can use ChatGPT as someone who is always ready to brainstorm and can brainstorm just about anything!

Define the Topic

Before using Generative AI to help you, you should clarify the topic.

Are you starting a new business? Finding a name for a cat? In this example, we will brainstorm ideas for activities for a birthday party for five-year-old girls.

Ask Open-Ended Questions

Unlike when you ask ChatGPT for something specific, it is important to keep it open-ended for brainstorming sessions. This will give you a wider range of responses:

Example

With the following prompt:

What are some unique ideas for activities for 10 five-year-old girls at a birthday party?

A response from ChatGPT-4 could be:

That is a good list of starting points. Let's narrow it down, then expand it further.

Follow-Ups with more Details

From the list above, let's move forward with ideas 1 and 5. Combine them into one for a nature princess party!

To get more details, we can ask ChatGPT to add unique details:

Example

With the following prompt:

Combine ideas 1 and 5. Make this into a unique experience that the children will remember. Write a story the girls can act out, and make sure it gives everyone something to do.

A response from ChatGPT-4 could be:

Now that sounds like a good time!

Refine Further

Now we have our key idea, let's refine it further.

Example

With the following prompt:

For activity 9, give me 2 examples of epic narration from each activity. Something we can use as a template and build from depending on how it went.

A response from ChatGPT-4 could be:

That was an example of how you can start with a basic idea and, with the help of ChatGPT, transform it into something unique.
