Look for this insight
Volume-then-filter beats asking for the single best idea — generate wide with AI, converge with human judgment.
Lesson hook
Asking AI for 'the best idea' gets you the most average one. Ask for twenty, expect fifteen duds, and hunt for the three sparks. Divergent generation is the model's job; convergent judgment is yours.
Do this now
Open any chat tool: 'Give 20 short ideas for [one real work problem]. No explanations, one line each.' Strike through the duds, star your top 3. You're done when you have 3 starred ideas — and at least one surprises you.
