Steve Jobs He used a creative method based on the connection of experiences and knowledge known as the point method. But It didn’t have AI to multiply connections and create even more amazing inventions. How would you have used it?
The product design led by Steve Jobs changed the world using the fusion of a priori, antagonistic concepts. What would happen if you asked ChatGPT to apply its point method? Would their designs be up to par?
The key to this method is connect inputs in unconventional wayssuch as combining travel memories with a melody, which could result in an innovation, such as a meditation app with natural sounds. a perfect synesthesia of the not so obvious.
Some examples are the iPod that combined music players with design, functionality, a PC and a file library like iTunes or iPhone that combined design, aesthetics, personal computers, humanism and telephony.
Often this type of genius ends up seeming simple. They are one of those things that you see and it feels like they were there, waiting, within reach, that could have occurred to anyone. Will this happen with the inventions proposed by artificial intelligence? Let’s get to work.
Starting to mix concepts with Steve Jobs’ point method and AI
I started by asking ChatGPT for a list of the most profitable companies or products in the world, also about sectors that provided the most services to citizens. Their responses were still chaotic and predictable.
He suggested concepts such as gamified education—a mix of board games and schools—or shopping with augmented reality. Nothing very disruptive.
It’s not that they weren’t interesting concepts, it’s that they weren’t groundbreaking enough. So I upped the ante and introduced random concepts.
I introduced words like psychology, religion, painting, photography, video games, cooking, meditation, sewing, hairdressing, streamers, communication, music or running and ChatGPT suggested I create an urban self-garden kit for restaurants.
What would Steve Jobs ask AI?
I had to force brainstorming more. What would Steve Jobs ask AI? It was at that moment when it occurred to me to give him already iconic brands. That idea was key. What product would result from the mixture of large companies? Here groundbreaking ideas began to arrive.
Nike and Lego would create modular sneakers. Amazon and Ikea expandable and customizable furniture. To ride little by little. Google and Coca Cola the smart vending machine.
Adidas and Red Bull clothing with energy monitoring. Loreal and Tesla the beauty and vlog studio integrated into electric cars. Near. But still nothing compared to what AI had to offer with the Steve Jobs point method.
What product would come from the merger of merged antagonistic sectors?
Will we ever see clothing that captures CO₂, algae bioplastic cosmetics, the university program on spatial cultural management or the totally virtual reality show?
That was the result of proposing AI to merge antagonistic sectors into products. The experiment was bearing fruit.
But it still seemed that if it had been in the hands of Steve Jobs, the concepts would flow more. Steve would have added more wood to the bonfire. Would you have tried to guide and control ChatGPT or did you have to let go of the reins? No sooner said than done.
Disruptive products created by the philosophy of Steve Jobs and ChatGPT
In a final effort I began to introduce concepts such as sports disciplines, art trends, countries, the products that we had already created as a result of mergers, hobbies and much more.
Also, I decided to use another AI that would give me images. Mix everything with everything. Now, these great inventions have arrived, as crazy as they are sometimes plausible.
