So you ask for 20 ideas and filter. Even if you throw away 19, it's still useful.



Even if you throw all of them away, the point is the human is simply more effective in their role. Just breaking the ice, the writer's block; anything to get out of the creative rut that we all fall in, is worth its weight in GPUs.


Thank you, you express it much better than I can. "Diabetic-Friendly Shoes" from the above list immediately had me thinking in half a dozen different directions at once.


Not necessarily if the remaining one idea is still garbage.


It's not. That's the purpose of filtering them.


How many turds should i filter though until I suddenly find gold?


How bad do you want the gold?


Probably should have chosen a valuable but inedible element.


They’re all bad ideas, though.
