‘Creative’ brainstorming with AI

During my most recent episode of procrastinating creatively, I entered ‘Brian Eno Lane’ again and came across this app called as ‘Oblique Strategies’. A little more probing revealed that there was a Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt collaboration by the same name which was a deck of cards that contained these random, un related and unique strategies that many creative individuals have used over the years to think differently or break their thought patterns when they are stuck creatively! I immediately ordered one deck for my own precious, ‘wanting something to fuel my creativity’ self from Amazon!

The next thing I did was to check whether AI can act like Brian Eno and come out with similar strategies that can help me out of procrastination! And it did something unique as if driven by its own oblique strategy…AI did come out with a list of things that can inspire a totally new direction of creative exploration and I have put the list here, hope it can inspire some unique form of creations!
