Your Brain’s Secret Weapon in an AI World

Your Brain’s Secret Weapon in an AI World
👋 Hi, I am Mark. I am a strategic futurist and innovation keynote speaker. I advise governments and enterprises on emerging technologies such as AI or the metaverse. My subscribers receive a free weekly newsletter on cutting-edge technology.

If you think AI is just a tool, think again. It’s your creative sparring partner and it’s already outthinking you.

Generative AI isn’t just for automating tasks. It’s a game changer for creativity and innovation, but only if you train your brain to use it differently.

Most people stick to linear prompts, asking AI for simple solutions. Instead, shifting your mindset to treat AI as a collaborator unlocks its full potential. Think in "what if" scenarios, experiment with analogies, or even role-play with AI as a futurist or philosopher.

AI thrives on audacious prompts: imagine rethinking productivity as a dance or redesigning solutions from scratch. The real innovation comes from breaking free of routine thinking and venturing into uncharted ideas.

  • Challenge norms: Frame prompts for exploration, not answers.
  • Iterate creatively: Chain prompts for deeper ideas.
  • Engage boldly: Treat AI as a partner, not a tool.

If AI could reimagine your biggest challenge today, what would it create? How are you evolving your thinking to collaborate with machines creatively?
