Here’s a demonstration of how to use AI to help you brainstorm or generate ideas. AI can be a powerful tool to use in your innovation, design thinking, or ideation projects. We demonstrate how to use popular tools like OpenAI playground and ChatGPT to generate and develop ideas for a number of questions and purpose. Follow along with the video and try it yourself for a different way to brainstorm or ideate new ideas or directions. You can also see the transcript of our AI ideation session below to see the ideas that were created when our question meets artificial intelligence.

Here is a transcript of that chat. You can see the AI does a good job of elaborating a concept and explaining in natural human language.
Describe what a business storytelling program could consist of.
A business storytelling program is a program designed to teach people in business how to effectively use storytelling to communicate ideas and persuade others. The program could consist of a series of workshops, seminars, or classes that cover the basics of storytelling and how to apply it in a business setting. The program may also include discussions or exercises on identifying key messages, crafting compelling narratives, and delivering stories in a compelling and engaging way. Additionally, the program may provide participants with opportunities to practice their storytelling skills and receive feedback from instructors and peers. Ultimately, a business storytelling program aims to help participants develop the skills and confidence they need to effectively use storytelling to achieve their business goals.
OK, so how do you help people become more confident storytellers?
There are several ways to help people become more confident storytellers. One way is to provide them with a solid understanding of the basics of storytelling, such as the structure of a story and the elements that make up a compelling narrative. This can be done through a combination of lectures, discussions, and exercises.
Another way to help people become more confident storytellers is to provide them with opportunities to practice their storytelling skills in a safe and supportive environment. This can be done through exercises and activities that allow participants to tell stories and receive feedback from instructors and peers.
Additionally, providing people with a framework for crafting and delivering stories can also help them feel more confident as storytellers. This might include techniques for identifying key messages, organizing information into a clear and compelling narrative, and delivering stories in an engaging and authentic way.
Overall, helping people become more confident storytellers involves a combination of education, practice, and support, as well as a focus on building the skills and confidence they need to effectively use storytelling in a business setting.

How can we use AI or ChatGPT to become better storytellers?
AI and ChatGPT (a large language model trained by OpenAI) can be useful tools for improving storytelling skills in several ways. For example, AI and ChatGPT can be used to help generate ideas for stories and suggest different directions a narrative could take. They can also be used to provide suggestions for how to structure a story, organize information, and craft compelling narratives.
Additionally, AI and ChatGPT can be used to help identify key messages and themes in a story, as well as provide feedback on the clarity and coherence of a narrative. This can be especially useful for people who are just starting to learn about storytelling, as it can provide them with guidance and support as they develop their skills.
Overall, AI and ChatGPT can be valuable tools for improving storytelling skills by providing suggestions, guidance, and feedback that can help people become more confident and effective storytellers.
