what is divergent thinking?
<|assistant|>
Divergent thinking is a creative process in which ideas or solutions are generated by exploring different possible solutions or angles on a problem. This often involves gathering new information or looking at a problem from a new perspective. Divergent thinking is often characterized by generating many possible solutions, sometimes even seemingly unrelated or extreme, before narrowing them down. This contrasts with convergent thinking, which is focused on arriving at one solution from a set of given parameters.
