Introducing The GenAI Prism Infographic: A Framework For Collaborating With Generative AI
JESS3 design studio and Brian Solis, digital futurist and best-selling author, announced the release of the GenAI Prism v1.0 infographic along with Conor Grennan, leading generative AI expert and Dean of Students/Head of GenerativeAI at NYU Stern School of Business.
Jeremiah Owyang, Venture Capital Investor at Blitzscaling Ventures, and my friend and former colleague, shared an observation that there are more than 10,000 generative AI projects in play right now. As the famous saying from the movie JAWS goes, “we’re going to need a bigger infographic.”
The effort took over six months to complete and included a panel of experts to help us assess the maturity of each category and company for impact, adoption, and potential. It’s safe to say that we consider this version 1.0 and there will be many iterations over time. Please see below for download links.
About
The GenAI Prism organizes the landscape of generative AI companies that automate and augment how people create and work in their personal and professional lives.
More than a visualization of the most popular generative AI logos, the GenAI Prism offers a mental model to mindfully and intentionally approach prompts toward more intentional outcomes and insights.
The GenAI Prism is a reference guide that to prompt human creativity and imagination to collaborate with AI toward more thoughtful, effective, and extraordinary outcomes.
GenAI isn’t here to do the work of people or replace them, but instead it serves as a creative partner to augment human output. It enhances, accelerates, and boosts the work we do today while also allowing us to perform and create outputs we couldn’t do before.
Design
The design of the GenAI Prism is intended to ‘refract’ the GenAI ‘light’ to slow the speed of a fast-moving genre. Doing so allows viewers to reflect on the spectrum and understand the significance of each wavelength.
As you endeavor to bring your vision to light, consider the potential outcome you’d like to achieve.
1) Are you solving a problem?
2) Are you exploring new horizons to create something net new?
3) Are you optimizing or automating an existing process or product or service or works?
4) Are you augmenting something to perform exponentially?
5) Are you experimenting?
The GenAI Prism provides a visual workflow to put generative AI to work. It’s designed to future-proof human ingenuity by helping users formulate exponential outputs before the prompt. With practice, formulated prompts will unlock capacities not previously attainable to deliver exponential outcomes unimaginable just last year.
William H. White wrote in 1950 that the great enemy of communication is the illusion of it. GenAI is new. It’s evolving. It’s incredible in terms of its potential, but also confusing, and even daunting. But the path to the future is forged by those who explore new horizons and live to tell. Our vision, and our investments into outcomes, and how we learn and communicate those learnings, will help us, and those around us, grow.

It’s been said that AI won’t take jobs, but those who use AI will have a strong advantage over those who don’t. Studies already show that with vision, creativity, and a commitment to experimentation, work not only accelerates, but also elevates the quality of output. In one such study, Wharton Professor Ethan Mollick in partnership with social scientists at Boston Consulting Group found that consultants who used AI finished 12.2% more tasks on average, completed tasks 25.1% more quickly, and produced 40% higher quality results.
The ultimate goal with generative AI is to enhance or more so, augment, the creative power of human potential, incorporating this technology to create and perform more thoughtful, effective, and extraordinary projects.
Composer, musician, and avant garde artist Laurie Anderson once said, “If you think technology will solve your problems, you don’t understand technology — and you don’t understand your problems.”
The same is true for GenAI.
Anyone seeking to displace people with genAI doesn’t understand their existing problems or potential opportunities.
Augmentation is the key to becoming a next-generation AI-first business.
