How to Solve Problems with AI - Not Just Use It

Learn a structured 5-step framework for building successful AI solutions that solve real problems rather than falling into the common trap of technology-driven development. Discover why most AI projects fail due to being grounded in hype rather than addressing genuine needs, and explore two contrasting stories that illustrate the difference between effective and ineffective approaches to AI implementation. Master the essential steps of problem identification, solution brainstorming, MVP scoping, building, and reflection that increase your chances of creating impactful AI applications. Understand the "hammer problem" where people look for ways to use AI tools rather than starting with actual problems that need solving. Follow along as each step is broken down with practical guidance on picking meaningful problems, generating creative solutions, defining minimum viable products, implementing your ideas, and learning from the results to iterate and improve your approach.
