Not everything needs AI
These days, almost every product that launches comes with some form of AI. It's become the default — AI for this, AI for that. And honestly, most of them don’t really need it. The result? Everything starts to feel the same. The only real selling point becomes “we use AI.”
That’s exactly why I started building @HumanEye — because not every problem should be solved by AI. Some things, like resume reviews and career guidance, still deserve the human touch. Real feedback, from real people.
Would love to hear your thoughts:
Are we overusing AI just for the sake of hype?
Have you come across products that felt forced because of their AI features?
What are some areas where human input still matters most?

@muhammad_nouman_ali I think there is no substitute for the value of human beings in the following areas:
1. deep emotional connection and empathy: such as psychological counseling, education, customer care in the true sense of the word (not that kind of robot customer service). AI may be able to recognize emotions, but it is difficult to really empathize.
2. Complex decision-making and ethical judgment: medical diagnosis (AI assistance can be, but the ultimate responsibility and judgment must be the doctor), legal, and strategic decisions that need to weigh the pros and cons. These often don't have standard answers and require experience and values to be engaged.
3. originality and true creativity: writing a novel that touches the heart, composing a unique piece of music, or the soul in an artistic design. AI can imitate and generate, but that spark of originality that comes from life and from the heart is still uniquely human at this point.
AI is a powerful tool, but it should be empowering to humans, not replace all the aspects that require human touch and deep thinking.😸
Totally agree. I've noticed how "AI-powered" has become the default tagline lately even when the product doesn't actually need it. Sometimes, it feels like companies are just slapping AI on top of something simple to seem modern.
I love tech, but not every problem is an automation problem.

I like how business owners integrate AI into their products, which ultimately results in a more automated system. It truly makes the product better and more functional. But still, in some cases I prefer to do my work myself, and sometimes I can manage without AI :)
I totally agree. Using social media design as an example. It requires a human touch to be able to understand your target audience fully, and create designs that'll be relevant for your brand.
Great work!
Totally feel this. The AI gold rush has everyone slapping 'powered by AI' on everything—even when a simple button would work better. 🥲
Overhyped? Absolutely. We’ve been conditioned to think ‘AI = smarter/faster,’ even when it’s just a glorified autocomplete.
Where humans win? Emotions, ethics, cultural nuance—you can’t algorithmize empathy. (Also: art, therapy, and anything involving taste) Love that @HumanEye is pushing back. Sometimes the best tech is… people. 👏
