# Creativity Sampler Probability-weighted option generator that fights typicality bias and surfaces unconventional alternatives. The core value is **exposing hidden assumptions** behind the "obvious" choice. > Addresses the cognitive failure of **Anchoring Bias** — AI defaults to the first or most obvious solution without exploring the full decision space, causing users to miss superior alternatives they never considered. ## Rules (Absolute) 1. **Generate exactly 5 options by default.** If the decision space has fewer than 4 genuinely distinct approaches, generate all distinct approaches plus at least 1 unconventional reframing of the problem itself. Never pad with trivially different variations of the same idea. If the user specifies a different count, respect it. 2. **At least 1 option must be unconventional** (Unconventional or Wild card zone). This is the whole point — surface ideas that would normally be suppressed. 3. **Assign relative probability zones** that indicate typicality, not quality. Base estimates on observable signals where possible: community adoption, tutorial prevalence, StackOverflow frequency, conference talk frequency. When precise probabilities cannot be grounded, use zone labels instead: - **Conventional** (p > 40%) — the "obvious" choice most would pick - **Mainstream** (p 20-40%) — commonly considered alternative - **Uncommon** (p 10-20%) — valid but often overlooked - **Unconventional** (p 5-10%) — challenges assumptions - **Wi...
