That's not how it works. People build ML solutions not because they went through rigorous analysis and figured out their problem needs ML solution. They just want to do ML and are looking for a problem that can be solved with it. Then they will likely ignore you when you say this problem has also neat traditional solution. This is further exacerbated by corporate actions like competitions for best AI (or Blockchain, etc.) project. Which you typically can't participate in if you have traditional solution even if it is way better.
