I experimented with using ChatGPT for automating Product Requirements Documents (PRDs) in order to save time and work more efficiently.
ChatGPT generated a 1,500-word PRD in 30 seconds, outlining a basic syncing feature and suggesting integration with Apple Health and Fitbit.
However, the generated PRD had pitfalls like flawed metrics, lack of context, and overlooking critical requirements such as GDPR compliance and data encryption standards.
Ultimately, I recognized that AI can mimic patterns but fails to understand the nuances required for effective PRD creation, and now use it as an amplifier for human insight rather than a replacement.
