Please don't use ChatGPT or other AI tools for the test task. If we see that you use ChatGPT for this task, it will be a strong negative, lowering your chances of getting an interview.

Here are the options:

  1. Ability to add a Video Gallery on the Website. This is the most popular request from users. Developers estimate it will take about 3 months.
  2. Ability to add contact us form. This is the second most popular request but significantly less popular than the video gallery. The developer estimate is 1 month maximum.
  3. Image Quality Enhancement using AI. There are no direct requests for this feature. However, AI technologies are currently popular, and we must stay trendy. Integrating an AI service is estimated to take between 2 and 4 months.
  4. Photo Upload Optimization. Your tech lead assures you that improving the service will speed up photo uploads by 5 times. The implementation will take about 3 months. You are not receiving direct complaints about slow image uploads, but sometimes, during user interviews, there are comments that photo uploads are expected to be faster.

 

Which feature will you choose to implement next? Explain your choice.
