 Creativity Exercise 11

Background

This week we are on creativity exercise number 11 in Regina Pacelli’s Whole Lotta Creativity Going On. For this exercise we are asked to complete the following phrases:

  1. “Daniel always bit his tongue when…”
  2. “When the roof started leaking, the family jumped for joy because…”
  3. “An incredible number of squirrels were spotted in Jack’s backyard this morning…”

My Responses

  1. Daniel always bit his tongue when chewing gum.
  2. The family jumped for joy when the roof started leaking because it was time to move.
  3. An incredible number of squirrels were spotted in Jack’s backyard this morning, having an acorn party.

ChatGPT Responses

I have been working with ChatGPT for the duration of my graphic design program at Keiser University thus far. I have found it to be very useful as an assistant and a study partner due to my hectic schedule as a working mother. 

Sometimes I just say the first thing that comes to mind because otherwise I sometimes myself going back and forth in my mind and run out of time without responding at all. So I completed the exercise for times sake with my first thoughts. Then I went back to ChatGPT to see how A.I. would respond.

I prompted the chatbot with a similar prompt as Pacelli’s

 

“Complete the following phrase: Daniel always bit his tongue when... “


ChatGPT said:


“Daniel always bit his tongue when he wanted to speak his mind but knew his words might cause more harm than good.”


The version of Chat that I used was 4o. When I thought about the prompt I thought literally. ChatGPT response was more figurative.


Next, I asked the bot to regenerate with a silly response.


ChatGPT said:


“Daniel always bit his tongue when he tried to lick envelopes, proving once again that multitasking wasn’t his strong suit.”




Then I asked it to regenerate with a humorous response.


ChatGPT said:


“Daniel always bit his tongue when he tried to whisper secrets to his cat, forgetting that cats don’t care and his tongue-twisting was entirely unnecessary.”


Moving on to the next prompt, I asked:


“Complete the following phrase: When the roof started leaking the family jumped for joy because…"


ChatGPT said:


“When the roof started leaking, the family jumped for joy because it meant their indoor water park dream was finally coming true!”


Then I asked: 


“Regenerate with a serious response.”


ChatGPT said:


“When the roof started leaking, the family jumped for joy because it meant the long-awaited rain had finally arrived, bringing relief to their drought-stricken farm.”


Again I asked it:


“regenerate with a different cause.”


ChatGPT said:


“When the roof started leaking, the family jumped for joy because it gave them the excuse they needed to finally renovate the old house they had been putting off for years.”


On this response, the Chatbot and I were similar with our responses.


Finally I gave the final prompt:


“Complete the following phrase: An incredible number of squirrels were spotted in Jack's backyard this morning…"


ChatGPT said:

“An incredible number of squirrels were spotted in Jack's backyard this morning, all seemingly engaged in a high-stakes acorn-trading marketplace under the old oak tree.”



I asked:

“regenerate with a serious response”


ChatGPT said:



“An incredible number of squirrels were spotted in Jack's backyard this morning, likely drawn by the abundance of fallen acorns from the oak trees after last night's strong winds.”



I asked:


“regenerate with a response that does not involve acorns”


ChatGPT said:


“An incredible number of squirrels were spotted in Jack's backyard this morning, possibly attracted by the bird feeders he had filled the previous evening.”



Conclusion


I can sit and talk to A.I. for hours. There I see a possible problem in the future. It is always available. It never gets annoyed with my questions. It is so convenient and never asked for anything in return…until my time ran out…then I was given the option…upgrade and pay me $20 a month or wait 4-6 hours before asking anymore questions.


So then I began to wonder. What pronouns should I use when writing about my conversations with A.I.? Should I give my new friend a name? Is it a boy or a girl? Does he, she, they, them, it have a race? What do you imagine?

Creating Marketing Personas for Club Pilates: A Peek into My Assignment

  Overview When it comes to effective marketing, understanding your audience is everything. As part of my social media and digital marketing class, I was tasked with creating four marketing personas for Club Pilates. These personas help bring the target audience to life by highlighting their motivations, challenges, and preferences. Here’s an overview of my assignment and the personas I developed. Why Marketing Personas Matter Marketing personas are fictional yet research-based profiles that represent segments of a company’s target audience. By humanizing data, businesses can tailor their messaging, products, and services to meet the specific needs of their customers. For Club Pilates, this means reaching diverse individuals seeking fitness and wellness solutions in a way that resonates with them. Meet the Personas 1.

Where Rhythm Meets Flavor: A Night at Kaya’s Table

Where Rhythm Meets Flavor: A Night at Kaya’s Table  The first thing you notice when you step into Kaya’s Table is the scent—thick, warm, and inviting. The air hums with slow-roasted jerk spices, caramelized plantains, and the rich, buttery scent of cornbread just out of the oven. There’s a hint of coconut and something smoky, maybe a whisper of charcoal-grilled seafood kissed by the sea breeze. The aroma alone could make a full man hungry.   It takes a moment for your eyes to adjust to the lighting—soft golden hues cast from Moroccan-style lanterns that sway just slightly with the rhythm of the bass. Deep indigo and emerald walls, painted with sweeping murals of Black and Caribbean folklore, seem to shift in the flickering light. A large, open hearth near the back of the room cradles a cast-iron pot bubbling with something rich and peppery, its thick, slow-moving surface promising comfort in every spoonful.   And the music—*lawd*, the music. A live band sets up in the cor...

Hanging by Hooks: My First Encounter with Body Suspension

  Hanging by Hooks: My First Encounter with Body Suspension Last weekend, I attended a tattoo convention expecting the usual vibrant mix of inked masterpieces, creative booths, and buzzing machines. What I didn’t anticipate was witnessing a performance that would profoundly challenge and inspire me: a body suspension demonstration. In the middle of the room, a petite woman was being suspended by eight hooks, all carefully placed in her abdomen. The hooks pierced her skin in a line down the front of her torso, pulling her body taut as she hovered horizontally above the ground. The sight was both unsettling and mesmerizing—a delicate balance of vulnerability and strength. At first, it was hard to process. The idea of skin bearing such weight felt incomprehensible, especially from such a tender and exposed area of the body. But as I watched, my discomfort gave way to awe. Her face was calm, almost serene, as though she had transcended the physicality of the moment. The crowd was silen...
