Primary Outcomes (End Points) The score given to the completed form that participants have to build. Two other dimensions: the scores in the dimensions of originality and elaboration. The overall score (consisting of the simple sum of the single scores of the dimensions originality and elaboration) assigned by the judgment panel to participants' completed designs. Each dimension is weighted equally. The two scores in the single dimensions of originality and elaboratio are also used.
Experimental Design (Public) Participants receive 20 matchsticks (without heads) and are required to assemble a form with-in a 5-minute time frame. In addition to a control treatment with no assistance, the AI treatment allows participants to select among the following options: 1) no assistance, 2) AI assistance in providing prompt words (such as “animal”, “nature”, “transport”) to trigger ideas, or 3) AI assis-tance in showing concrete but incomplete forms (such as a partial star diagram). At the end of the experiment. participants complete a questionnaire with socio-demographic questions and self-assessed items about creativity and their experience with AI in daily and professional life. The assembled forms are photographed and presented to a judging panel that ranks the art works using predefined criteria of originality and elaboration. The top 3 participants of each session receive monetary prizes of decreasing size.

Planned Number of Clusters We plan to collect for the baseline and the treatment between 50-70 participants each. As we are also interested how children perform in this task we also collect 50-70 children observation for baseline and treatment each.
