Exploiting Generation: Using AI to Solve Problems with Multiple Approaches
Generate multiple solution approaches using AI to find the best option for your problem.
Rather than asking the AI for one answer, exploiting generation means asking it to think through multiple ways to solve a problem and then evaluating which approach works best. Generative AI is capable of exploring alternatives quickly. By requesting 'five different approaches to X' or 'brainstorm three ways this could go wrong,' you get diverse perspectives that you couldn't easily generate alone. This is valuable because problems often have multiple valid solutions with different tradeoffs. By seeing several options, you can choose based on your constraints (budget, time, ethics, feasibility). This also helps catch blindspots—the AI may suggest angles you…
