How to use AI for team building ideas

If you need a helping hand with breaking the ice, let AI be your pick! Here are some of the ways you can use AI for corporate team bonding exercises that train both your techy and creative sides.

Storyteller

Storyteller is a fun team-bonding activity that tests the imaginations of you and your employees. This activity begins with someone starting a story using one sentence. Then one by one, every teammate will follow with their sentence to continue the story.

Have AI begin the game by asking, “Give me a single sentence to start a story.” Whoever is prompting the AI tool will follow up with their sentence, followed by the next person in line and so on.

Trivia

Test your teammate’s knowledge with AI-powered trivia. Divide everyone into teams and have AI create trivia questions related to your industry, company, or general knowledge to challenge them. Or make it about movies or pop culture… you have the power to customize the questions the way you want! Put all the questions on PowerPoint slides and assign points to each question based on difficulty. The team that gets the most, wins.

What’s the image prompt?

This activity is perfect for honing your team’s AI skills and gets you thinking about how the tool processes natural language to produce a certain result. One of your team members will write a simple image prompt (keep the limit short, between 10-15 words) and present the image to the group. Then, each team member will try to guess the prompt and see who can most closely recreate the image.

Whoever has the closest prompt to the image wins. If you need ideas, you can ask AI, “Give me an image prompt for others to guess that’s no more than 10 words.” Make it funnier or more challenging by adjusting your prompt to say, “Give me a funny and challenging image prompt that’s no more than 15 words for my team members to guess.”

Guess the thing without saying what it is

Perfect for developing communication and critical thinking skills, this classic team building exercise can be played with AI. Ask AI to give a word to the “AI holder” and the entire team must guess what it is without saying it. If nobody figures it out, you could ask AI, “How do you communicate the word [word] without saying it?” and then share the answer.

Pitch an invention

For this exercise, team members will be divided into groups to use AI to help create and visualize a new, imaginative invention. Each team will make and present a concept image of their invention (made by AI) and a short brief to a panel. The panel will consist of a handful of individuals who must pick one winner to “invest” in. This activity not only helps with AI skills, but also with public speaking.

Ask AI for team building ideas

These are just some of the many creative ways you can use AI to help build team morale and develop important skills in the workplace. If you want to come up with your own, you can always ask AI for ideas with a simple prompt like, “What are some team building exercises I can try?”
