I feel lately AI is becoming a buzzword in marketing. Full credit to those implementing and training full scale AI to solve a problem. Any non AI founders here like me?

My pruduct App Finder is an advanced search engine for Android apps that currently only uses keyword search (based on PostgreSQL) and works much more reliably than the Play Store search. However, I plan to implement AI-based natural-language search as an alternative soon.

@slimmy82 Yes, I think for search engines one should have both options, AI search, and somthing like keyword search where you know and understand exactly what the algorithm does. After all, we love computers since they are so very reliable and predictable...
@konrad_sx ooh going to the dark side? Just kidding. If it makes sense then absolutely!! Kudos to making it happen!

While it could technically fall under the umbrella of "AI", what I'm working on is projects that utilize computer vision. I think a lot of the AI buzz today is really just wrappers for LLMs which is something I haven't really pursued yet. TipBuddy will be my first release. It's an automated tip calculator mobile app that utilizes a user's phone camera to look at a bill's total and automatically calculate the tip and total. It can also split a tip both equally and proportionally as well as a few other features.
@scottlabsai that’s actually very smart! So cool!

@slimmy82 Thank you for the compliment!

@scottlabsai the product sounds amazing! goodluck with it! :)

I completely agree with you! And here I am, a fellow non-AI founder :) good luck!
@matej_cabadaj just followed you my fellow non-AI friend! Welcome to the team lol

"Absolutely, I resonate with your sentiment! As a non-AI founder myself, I appreciate the value of genuine problem-solving. It's great to connect with fellow founders navigating the landscape sans AI. Cheers to innovation in various forms! 🚀 #NonAIFounders"
@jaxon_smith3 welcome to the non AI club! Just followed you my friend!
Jen Anderson
Yep. It doesn't make sense to use it in the app I'm launching. And as a veteran of the dot com bubble and crash, I'm pretty leery of the next big thing.
@jen_from_accomplist don’t get me wrong plenty of place for AI and how it’s improving productivity. But can you really call it a legitimate AI software? Term is being thrown around like candy on Halloween. Welcome to the club! Just followed you

Non-AI-founder here 👋. I agree - AI has become a buzzword lately. But, the market will soon regulate itself. At the end of the day, your product should solve a problem - AI or non-AI
@junaid_kh 100% if it solves the problem valuable enough for a user to pay, that’s all that matters.
Agrima Sharma
I have the same question! Is there anyone who is a non-AI founder or product?
Terrence Kelleman
not only non Ai, I'm a consumer durable goods designer so twice out of my element! lol
@terrence_kelleman love it. Makes you extra special then!
Constantine Stan.
✋ Yup, that's me potentially!

Absolutely, AI has indeed become a buzzword, often used in marketing to capture attention. As a non-AI founder, it's interesting to navigate a tech landscape where AI is increasingly prominent. While AI solutions offer incredible advantages, there's still immense value in traditional, non-AI approaches, especially in industries where personalized, human touch is key. That said, even non-AI businesses can benefit from understanding AI trends. For example, my exploration of GPTBLOX, which categorizes over 8,000 GPTs. It's intriguing to see how these technologies evolve and can be used even in non-AI fields. How do you think non-AI founders can leverage the growing AI trend to enhance their businesses without necessarily implementing AI directly?
Ankur Sharma
✋ But soon I am planning to implement AI.
@ankur_sharma20 going over to the dark side? Just kidding, definitely exciting time with what AI can do!
Ankur Sharma
@slimmy82 haha.. I guess this is the best time to explore AI. Hoping for the best..

👋🏽 trying to be the best t best thing after the digital payments boom with Fryda! No AI needed for now - just trying to prolong physical products life and value 💜
@boudewijn_bos nice, do you think eventually there will need for AI in your product?
Boudewijn Bos
@slimmy82 yes in the long run it might help adding products more automatically (saw something in the OpenAI day that could help) but I am developing to suit every ouders needs - from understanding techie to average joe whom cares for safety and not too much techie fuss…but give the app a download and let me know if you think it could add value somewhere in else! (Fryda could help you store all those Christmas gifts and their important purchase information 💜)

What a lot of people fail to understand is that AI isn’t a solution. It’s a tool to provide a solution. What value is being provided to users is what’s more important, regardless of whether it’s augmented by AI or not
