In this podcast episode of Experiment Nation, hosted by Charlotte Bomford, guest Iqbal Ali, an experienced web designer, researcher, and comic book writer, discusses the concept of solution bias and the importance of identifying underlying problems before diving into solutions. Ali emphasizes using AI to help understand problem landscapes, avoiding hastily jumping to solutions, and improving experimentation processes. The conversation covers techniques like premortems and frameworks to minimize potential issues and ensure experiments address real user problems. Ali highlights the collaborative potential of AI tools in maintaining the connection between problem statements and solutions, advocating for a more thoughtful approach to A/B testing and problem-solving in product development.
