Will teachers' jobs disappear because of AI?

A few days ago, I listened to a Czech video cast where the idea was that in a few years, the teaching position will lose its relevance.

This seems like a quite realistic prognosis to me, because:

  • The teaching position is not particularly valued,

  • AI knows more information than a teacher,

  • AI does not sharply confront the user, which encourages people to ask questions and think critically (this can sometimes not be said about the school system)

  • More and more young people prefer to communicate with Chatgpt than with an "educational authority"

What are company benefits you offer? [and is it enough?]

In the trend of vibe coding and the era of artificial intelligence, when almost everyone can now start their own business, companies sometimes have trouble finding capable employees.

What does this usually mean?

Steal this idea: What's a product you wish someone else would build?

Ever had a random idea and thought, Someone should totally build this ? Drop it here.

This thread s for the stuff you don t want to build yourself but really wish existed. Weird, useful, hilarious, oddly specific all fair game.

Notes from a failed Product Hunt launch

After hours of reading best practices, crafting the perfect assets and assembling what felt like a bulletproof plan, we were ready to launch on Product Hunt. We worked so hard and genuinely believed we d wake up to thousands of sign ups and the Product of the Day badge.

The reality was very different. We saw a tiny boost in sign ups, got stuck at around 200 upvotes, and to top it off, finished below a food blender.

New changes in the UX/UI Product Hunt notification bar – How do you like it?

Today, new changes to the UX and UI in the Product Hunt notification window also showed up on my desktop.

I need a month or so to acclimate to the changes, but in this case, it seems like I'll get used to it pretty quickly the UI/UX looks pretty intuitive.

Is Experience as a Founder good to get a corporate job?

After spending the last few years building an AI startup within a corporate setup navigating ambiguity, owning end-to-end execution, wearing multiple hats I m now stepping into the job market.

But here s the catch:
When you apply as a founder, even within a structured organization, it often raises eyebrows more than interest. Was it just a title? Was it too niche? Was it too independent to translate into team-based environments?

I feel like all the apps that have been launching on Product Hunt are just GPT wrappers

Lately, it feels like every other launch on Product Hunt is just another GPT wrapper with a shiny UI and a slightly different niche. Don t get me wrong some are genuinely useful but the signal-to-noise ratio is getting rough. It s like we re stuck in this loop of micro-novelty: same backend, different coat of paint.

I m really hoping we start seeing more products that push actual boundaries stuff that thinks beyond prompt engineering and starts solving problems we didn't even know we needed solved. Curious if others are feeling this fatigue too? Or am I just too deep in the not another AI chrome extension mindset?

What were your goals for Q1 and how successful were you? (Wrap up)

We had 90 days to accomplish what we set for ourselves.

Many people set yearly goals New Year's resolutions  but I believe quarterly goals are more sustainable and achievable.

In what situations would you prefer a virtual consultant over a human one?

Hi everyone!
Since GPT-4o came out (GPT-3.5 wasn t good enough), I ve been using AI (not only OpenAI) for many things.
I ask questions about marketing, legal stuff, taxes, travel plans, health almost everything.

It s fast, always available (not free, but not expensive either).

But when I have to make an important decision, I still go to a real person a human consultant just to be sure and double-check the final details.

I think many people here on Product Hunt use AI a lot too. So I m curious:

What types of reading exercises would make language learning more engaging and effective for you?

Hello Everyone!

We're researching how to improve reading comprehension features in language-learning apps based on our own struggles with the disconnected texts often found in traditional platforms. Our vision is to create reading exercises that genuinely connect with learners' real interests, proficiency levels, and learning goals. I won't dive into all the details right now, but we'd love to spark a conversation around this question:

  • What types of reading exercises would make language learning more engaging and effective for you?

Looking forward to your insights don't hesitate to share your experiences or reach out directly!

Are AI comments a (good) future for social media?

Today I read this message:
Instagram has just added the ability to write comments with AI.

A similar option LinkedIn has (it offers pre-written recommended comments like "Congratulations")

Missing the cozy vibes in PH discussions — anyone else?

Don't you think Product Hunt discussions have become as cold as ice lately?
Or maybe I just don t get which topics work best for my discussion themes?
Last summer/autumn, discussions seemed to get more replies and upvotes people felt more cozy and engaged back then in comments.

What's your biggest pain point or frustration with current language-learning apps? 

Hello Everyone!

We're building a personalized language-learning app inspired by our own experiences and frustrations with the one-size-fits-all approach of traditional apps. Our goal is to offer customized and adaptive learning paths, powered by user data and tailored to individual interests, goals, and motivations.

I won t go into full pitch mode just yet, but we d love to start a discussion around this question:

  • What s your biggest pain point or frustration with current language-learning apps?

What Can AI Teach Toddlers👶? A Mom-Researcher's Perspective

As a mom and AI education researcher, I've observed 3 key skills toddlers develop through AI toys:

1 Problem-solving (e.g. voice-commanding robots through block challenges)

2 Creative storytelling (imagining new story endings)

3 Emotional recognition (learning empathy via facial interactions)

What current activities in your business are not replaced by AI yet.

I think that the most affected by AI were:

creating content (text, photos, now video)

creating the code
simplifying the process via AI agents (e.g. agenda)

What will be the role of humans in society when AI and human-like robots take over more jobs?

In yesterday's discussion by @aaronoleary, there were a few thoughts about using robots at home.

In this context, several questions occurred to me.

For example, what will happen to the future of humans if we delegate most of the manual and mental work to machines? How will we handle our free time? How will people be rewarded?
