Roast My Idea: AI-Powered Library Management for Colleges – Am I Solving a Real Problem or Just Overcomplicating Books? 📚

Hey ! I’m working on an idea to help college libraries manage their books using AI and IoT, but I need your unfiltered takes.

• Problem: Students wait weeks for popular books, libraries waste money on unused titles, and nobody knows where anything is.

• Solution: An app that lets students pre-book books ($$ priority), auto-charges late fees, and tells libraries what to buy next using AI.

• Tech: RFID tags (like retail stores) + AI to predict demand.

Why I’m Here - Is this a real problem, or am I just inventing tech for tech’s sake?
- Would colleges actually pay for this, or are they too stuck in their ways?
- What’s the dumbest flaw in this idea that I’m blind to?

Roast Criteria: 1. Is this solving a hair-on-fire problem, or just a “nice-to-have”?
2. Would you pay to skip a waitlist for a textbook?
3. Worst-case scenario: What kills this idea?
