Ask HN: What active research areas or technologies will have the most impact?
I'm fairly bullish on Synthetic Biology and Neuroscience Inspired Machine Learning, but I'm curious to hear what others think?
- hazz99 8y agoAnything to do with a global internet will be game-changer, for better or for worse (I think better, but could potentially be a large monopoly) Self-driving cars will completely change our society. Personalised medicine might be amazing, but I don't know much about it. Could just be hype.
- hsikka 8y agoI’ve actually been thinking about using the strategy comma.ai employed to try and build some interesting open source predictive health models. Like, get a bunch of enthusiasts to share biometric data, build some cool preliminary completely open source models that tie those bio markers to interesting health results, then go from there. I don’t know if it would get big, but it would be a fresh stab at personalized medicine imo
