The FAQs for the CORD website need to be improved upon to paint the entire story for the organization. CC - @AdityaKapoor74 for brainstorming on the points to add.

Can we have this completed by today? @BalajiAI @AdityaKapoor74

BalajiAI commented 1 year ago

Sure @AneeshBose. Before editing the FAQs, I'll post here the content, and if it seems good, then I'll make a PR.

Also, the FAQs should address common questions that a beginner will have when they're starting out their research journey.

AneeshBose commented 1 year ago

Sure. You can discuss it with @AdityaKapoor74 too.

Do I need to have a solid mathematical background to get started in AI research?

It helps, but not required when you're starting out. You can also learn the required math on the fly. It also depends on the research project that you're involved in, For eg., NLP research projects doesn't require much math but projects on Optimization algorithms require a great deal of math. We also have a #math-for-ml slack channel, where you can ask doubts, and find a person to discuss topics regarding it.

What is the motivation behind this community?

You can learn anything related to AI in online for free. You can read research papers from top AI labs for free in arxiv. This is one of the best times to get started in AI research. But there's a caveat, good quality research always results from a group of people. It's hard to find a right partner for your research, especially when you're not from a research university. So our community helps you to find right colloborators for your research.
