Developers struggle to evaluate whether AI features actually solve real problems or are just hype-driven implementations
Software developers and technical decision-makers are frustrated by the pressure to integrate AI into products without clear business justification or user demand. They see AI being added everywhere as a checkbox feature rather than a solution to genuine pain points, wasting engineering resources and confusing users. Current solutions fail because there's no framework to distinguish between AI implementations that create real value versus those that are purely trend-following.
