By Randy Salars

Guides for using generative AI to brainstorm, write, and create. Experiment with tools like ChatGPT, DALL·E, and others to enhance your creative projects.

How AI Can Boost Your Creativity

Generative AI tools are transforming the creative process. They can help you brainstorm ideas, draft content, create images, compose music, and even generate code or design assets. By collaborating with AI, you can overcome creative blocks, explore new styles, and accelerate your projects—whether you’re a writer, artist, musician, marketer, or entrepreneur.

AI can act as a creative partner: suggesting new directions, remixing your ideas, or helping you iterate quickly. The key is to use AI as a springboard for your own imagination, not as a replacement for your unique voice and vision.
