    Hi HN, Last year, we launched a non-profit AI research lab called AI Grant (http://aigrant.org). Our goal is to fund promising people around the world working on AI. No strings attached. We've since given away over $100,000 to 30 teams working on different projects. You can see some of them here: http://aigrant.org/#finalists. We just started accepting applications for our third batch! The academic grant application process is burdensome. It's only avalible to a choice few. Applications take days to complete.

    San Francisco Compute – 512 H100s at <$2/hr for research and startups2023 · sfcompute.org · ▲727

    Hey folks! We're Alex and Evan, and we're working on putting together a 512 H100 compute cluster for startups and researchers to train large generative models on. - it runs at the lowest possible margins (<$2.00&#x2F;hr per H100) - designed for bursty training runs, so you can take say 128 H100s for a week - you don’t need to commit to multiple years of compute or pay for a year upfront Big labs like OpenAI and Deepmind have big clusters that support this kind of bursty allocation for their researchers, but startups so far have had to get very small clusters on very long term contracts, wait…

    Hi HN, I’ve been working on InterviewFlowAI, a tool that automates the first-round hiring workflow for teams that spend too much time on initial screening. It handles resume scoring, public job links, candidate applications, and full interviews conducted over phone or Google Meet. I built this after spending years interviewing candidates as a Head of Engineering and realizing that most of the bottleneck happens before an engineer ever gets involved. Too many resumes, too many unqualified applicants, and a ton of repetitive phone screens that rarely lead anywhere. Here’s what the system does…
