Show HN: New AI Grant Fellows Hi HN, A few months ago, we announced our AI Grant project. We give $2,500 in cash and $20,000 in GPU training credits to anyone who wants to work on AI research. Today, we're excited to announce our second batch of Fellows! We were flooded with nearly 1,000 applications. Topics were diverse: robotics, NLP, biology, tooling, physics, dataset acquisition, fundamental research and more. The applicants were also diverse, spanning from world-class Google researchers to high school students. Check out http://ift.tt/2z5O72O for an overview of the 20 new Fellows.
