This study aims to develop an interactive idea-generation support system that enables users to consider the potential side effects of realizing new ideas. In idea generation, confirmation bias often leads to an excessive focus on ``convenience,'' which can result in the oversight of unintended consequences, referred to as the ``side effects of convenience.''To address this, we explored methods to alleviate user biases and expand perspectives through system-supported dialogue, facilitating a broader consideration of potential side effects.The proposed system employs a stepwise idea-generation process supported by large language models (LLMs), enabling users to refine their ideas interactively. By dividing the ideation process into distinct stages, the system mitigates biases at each stage while promoting ideas' concretization and identifying side effects through visually supported dialogues.Preliminary evaluation suggests that engaging with the proposed system fosters awareness of diverse perspectives on potential side effects and facilitates the generation of ideas that proactively address these issues.
