Proof of Usefulness Score

Gaining Momentum

The Global IIT Artificial Intelligence Forum serves a highly relevant and timely niche for networking among IIT alumni in the AI/ML space. However, the submission provides vague and hyperbolic metrics ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') rather than verifiable traction data. As a community running primarily on Slack, technical innovation is minimal. It demonstrates real-world utility as a niche professional network but lacks the verifiable scale and evidence required for a higher score.

Description

We are a global network of IITians interested in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data and Analytics. This is a free forum, primarily run over Slack with the aim of connecting interested people. We run multiple events virtually and in-person like coffee chats, speaker spotlights and technical discussions on related topics. Our aim is to create a strong pan-IIT bond through our shared experiences and provide a safe space for explorations and intense discussions. Please DM Tushar Kant or me for an invite to the slack forum or register through our website.
