The premise
Pillars exist to settle arguments. AI can draft pillar candidates from a pitch; the team picks the 3 that will actually filter decisions.
What AI does well here
- Propose 5-7 candidate pillars with 1-line definitions.
- Test each pillar against a sample design decision.
- Flag pillars that overlap and should merge.
What AI cannot do
- Replace the creative director's vision.
- Predict which pillars will hold up at month 18.
- Decide what the game is.
