01 Nov 2025
If your AI outputs feel generic and stuck in a rut, the problem isn't the AI—it's your prompts. 🤯 A breakthrough Stanford study reveals a simple 8-word phrase that can double your AI's creativity.We’ll talk about:A deep dive into "Verbalized Sampling"—the revolutionary prompting technique from Stanford.The real reason AI is so boring: how our own human biases during training (the "Mere-Exposure Effect") taught AI to be uncreative.The simple 8-word phrase ("...with their probabilities") that gives the AI "permission" to access its full creative potential.Stunning "before and after" examples: from the "Boring Bear" and "Crime Story" to the "Photorealistic Astronaut."Proof that this powerful method does not sacrifice factual accuracy or break safety guardrails.Plus, three practical ways to implement this today (Direct Prompt, System Prompt, Python).Keywords: Verbalized Sampling, Prompt Engineering, AI Creativity, Stanford AI, ChatGPT, GPT-5, AI Prompts, Mode Collapse, AI Alignment, Synthetic DataLinks:Newsletter: Sign up for our FREE daily newsletter.Our Community: Get 3-level AI tutorials across industries.Join AI Fire Academy: 500+ advanced AI workflows ($14,500+ Value)Our Socials:Facebook Group: Join 266K+ AI buildersX (Twitter): Follow us for daily AI dropsYouTube: Watch AI walkthroughs & tutorials
