Abstract

INSIGHTS is a digital tool for inventing creative requirements from large volumes of projec-related information. It goes beyond generative AI chatbots by combining technologies that operationalise different characteristics of an integrated model of creative processes and outcomes. Its potential was demonstrated during two workshops to explore next-generation product features for a line of domestic appliances and alternative uses of bi-products from power generation. The paper ends by outlining further capabilities and discussing the tool’s role in discovering creative opportunities for soSware product features.
