Topic: AI for beginners from a beginner – Open Source AI for
Generalists

Recently I saw a demo of AI technology that could count the number of
people in a security camera video feed.  I thought it was pretty cool
and started Googling “how did they do that?”. First I came across
scientific papers that require you to have an advanced math degree to
understand, but soon I stumbled across a whole other class of open
source projects that are pre-packaged and ready to go with zero
math.   If you can handle the level of complexity roughly equivalent to
compiling a Linux program from source, you can also start using
powerful AI today.

I’m sure it will be interesting to many of your members.
