Hi HN! I'm happy to answer any questions. I'm also open to feedback if there are suggestions.<p>I was inspired to try this experiment by Nadia Eghbal's grant program: <a href="https://medium.com/@nayafia/5-000-no-strings-attached-9e7b95d33e50" rel="nofollow">https://medium.com/@nayafia/5-000-no-strings-attached-9e7b95...</a>
What I find surprisingly appealing is, the open source heroes that I grew up with, nat friedman in this case, are pushing towards AI / deep-learning. It feels as if "hackers", who previously flocking towards open-source software are gravitating towards AI, stats, machine learning etc.<p>I am open to scurry along and move to this new place where the cheese is.
What if applicant personally doesn't have any previous experience with AI-related technologies. But has a strong affinity towards learning them. Also If he/she has a really good idea.Will it be okay? or the ones with previous experience will be preferred?
I just submitted my application. Would it be possible to add a notification that the application has been successfully submitted? Perhaps that is not possible with the package you are using.
Has anybody looked at ThoughtTreasure? Since Nat is willing to accept updates to Open Source Software, this amazing code base would be a good start of AI related stuff.
It really could use a better user interface to its databases, for example. Or a tie to WikiData. There are several good things that could be added to it.<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThoughtTreasure" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThoughtTreasure</a>
@Nat: Any thoughts on a project using AI to do real-time noise reduction, signal identification, and signal extraction in a controlled environment?<p>To get an idea of what a more complex version would look like, which is closed source, see:<p><a href="http://cyphercorp.com" rel="nofollow">http://cyphercorp.com</a>
Mind doing the same for hardware projects using an open source OS?<p>A pal I know could use half of that just to set up the legal structure of his outfit.
