No mention of how they share what they learn with each other. I know the main bottleneck here is material / financial, but I get the impression there's also an information bottleneck. Getting them networked might dim the romance a little, but it also might mitigate the tragedy.
- m-i-l 10y agoThe article mentions at least one of them can't read or write. Would be an interesting challenge to build a knowledge sharing platform in that case.

Maybe they can be, but don't know what enterprising startup would find it profitable to create the machine learning algorithms necessary to do this successfully. As a well-funded nonprofit, maybe. Because of illiteracy, your metadata would also need to be a significant amount of audio, at least for the illiterate humans.
