AI is terrible at inventing new ideas. But it is masterful at recombining existing information in the world to facilitate new invention by humans.

The seeds of ideas in the slider above range in quality from “what the hell is this?” to “WOW, that’s actually a pretty good idea, I’d probably watch that!” This auto-generated stochastic variety is the point.
It fills an absence that commercial technology has built barriers around.
Culture has been so heavily digitized, your exposure to new ideas now is curated & personalized by AI for commercial gain – that is, AI never sleeps to maintain your attention in ways that a TV feed was capable of before.
If this is the case, how do you get exposed to new ideas in the digital fabric of our screens?
There are a LOT of seeds of ideas here, and they are all generated from the most extremely viral videos in the past 7 days – collectively billions of views.
Given their extreme trending nature, it would be unwise to ignore them.
Welcome to the Gemba Trend Engine
I used to work in TV development, and we used to say, “A great TV show idea can come from anywhere. A book you read, a comedian you saw, a new article, an experience – great ideas can come from anywhere!”
Well generative AI and TikTok are everywhere, and are arguably the cultural pulses of the world right now.
This is a prototype ideation engine currently calibrated to
Use multimodal AI to “watch” as many trending TikToks from the last 7 days.
Generate unscripted TV show ideas from each (currently the top 300 most viewed TikToks of the last 7 days).
Compile each idea into a tidy one-sheet pitch and post on this site here.
In a nutshell, this watches mass volumes of viral videos for you, scalable to tens-of-thousands per day and presents them in tidy TV pitch format.
Treat this like a bizarre museum or an antique shop where the highest value will not be obvious, but there are diamonds hiding in there.
The best ideas are only decrypted by the most creative human minds.
Gemba isn’t about digitizing creativity. Its about reprogramming the world with AI to bring human creativity to new frontiers.
