"AI is fast at generating options. You still have to know which option is worth keeping — and why."

Do this now

Use AI to generate three to five variations of one element of your project. Pick the strongest output. Now write down specifically what makes it the strongest. That judgment is yours. The generation was the tool's.

Unpack

AI is genuinely useful for expanding the option space quickly. But it has no judgment about which version is conceptually strong, contextually appropriate, or true to the idea you're developing. A vague prompt produces generic output because AI reflects the quality of the thinking you give it.

Draw it.

Fast and messy is better than perfect.
