* Innovative ideas when designing interfaces
* Easier visualisation of tiny/huge scales (time and space - cosmology/biology/physics)
* Deeper understanding of art/music/literature/philosophy
* Being able to look at things from a more neutral perspective and thus better seeing changes that occur over a long period of time or that I'm very closely involved with (society/nature/politics/health)
Those are not your typical complex problems that we're looking for here but for me it still feels as if there could lie some potential. In my case it seems to come down to helping with creativity and the ability to visualize in a more detailed and at the same time neutral way.

Also: Effects very much differ from person to person. In fact: most people don't seem to like it / have negative (side) effects.
Those of you in to things like cryptography, AI, compilers, complex algorithms and similar topics: Have psychedelics ever helped you to solve complex problems? And if so, would you care to elaborate?I can't speak of those kinds of things because my lack of very complex problems. At times though they definitely gave me a better understanding of mathematics, physics, linguistics and other certain...
