Ways to Use AI

Creative Stimulators

Make something — a card, a poem, a painting — without needing the training.

What tends to get in the way

  • Feeling you were never the creative one
  • Hands that no longer do fine work
  • Not knowing where to start

What actually helps

A card only you could have sent

Describe it — “a card for my sister, with the lilacs from our mother’s garden” — and a picture appears. Print it, and write inside it by hand.

Step by step

  1. Open Canva or ChatGPT.
  2. Describe the picture in one or two sentences.
  3. Ask for changes until it is right.
  4. Print at home or at the chemist.

Writing with a patient collaborator

A poem, a toast, a eulogy. Say what you want to convey and let it offer three openings, then take it from there.

A start when there is none

Ask for ten ideas. Nine will be wrong, and the tenth will be the one you wanted.
