One of the worst things wealthy people tend to do, is trivialize the reasons behind poverty. Why don't you "just get a job/save/fix your car/get health insurance" etc Doing those 3 things is not enough. Even a

One thing I didn't make clear, that may explain why somebody just wouldn't build their own storage/delivery: when certain services become a commodity, and long-term commitments become an exception rather than the norm - it&#x

Congrats! It's very encouraging to see video tech with a solid customer base, and good investor support. Which factors do you think contributed most to your success? Was YC helpful in opening doors for you? How important is the right k

Yes, it's frustrating - but if the predominant response is doubt and confusion, you guys clearly didn't think this all the way through. AI tech is now easy and accessible, and you need to make a very good case why an AI startup wo

The beauty of AI work today - the technology has finally become accessible. You've got OpenCV, TensorFlow, Caffe - with tons of well-documented models and working examples. You can run them on your consumer GPU and get real, practical

You can get these from Google directly, or through one of the many accelerators and tech incubators - without providing all this data. As for CrowdFlower credits - I don't see why an aspiring AI company would want to build anything on
