MindMuse is a pocket-sized spark plug for creativity. The project was developed using Google AI Studio and ChatGPT to prompt the imagination.

The design concept is based on fostering creativity which is slowly being eroded away with increasing use of AI. Recent research reports growing concerns about the long-term educational implications of relying on AI to perform problem-solving tasks and to generate ideas (Kosmyna et al., 2025). This AI assistant essentially takes a problem with AI and turns it around, using AI against itself. The app dishes out daily prompts, quirky challenges and bite-sized brain warmers to help you break through creative blocks. It might be powered by AI but the ideas are generated by your own imagination (hallucinations encouraged). There is no pressure, no assessments, just playful exploration, one museful moment at a time. Don’t let AI steal your imagination!

Concept: An app that prompts users with a daily creative challenge using generative AI (drawing, writing, ideation). Future versions to include, streak system, and community space to share gallery/writing creations.

1. AI Use: Prompt generation, GPT-style feedback, image generation.

2. Why it’s fun: Encourages creativity and can double as a journaling or student motivational tool.
