Summary: Plan AI-enhanced workshops by preparing warmup activities involving AI, uploading context files, creating custom AIs, and providing adaptable sample prompts.
As the research by Fabrizio Dell'Acqua and colleagues proved , generative AI (genAI) can boost team ideation. However, incorporating AI in team ideation can be challenging, especially if different team members have different experience levels with genAI. This article discusses how you can prepare for a successful and productive AI-enhanced workshop. A subsequent article will talk about how to run such a workshop.
1. Prepare an AI WarmUp Activity to Build Familiarity
When prepping any workshop — AI-enhanced or not — I always use a warmup activity or icebreaker to get people’s minds and mouths moving. Well-crafted warmups help groups become familiar with the session’s tools. Whether this is a shared document, a digital whiteboard, or Sharpies and sticky notes , getting the tools into people’s hands is meant to remove any hesitations or access obstacles that participants may have. When I teach courses on AI, I always invite people to open their LLMs early in the session. Doing so ensures that everyone has them ready to go. I’d encourage workshop participants to use the same LLM. That way, people can troubleshoot problems and spend less time getting distracted by differences in various tools.
Here are some fun AI-based warmup examples you can use regardless of the group size or AI tool:
