People say that big spiders like the Goliath Bird Eating Spiders which are non-venomous are usually more docile (i.e they will not attack unless provoked).

Is the same true for highly venomous ones like Black Widow or Australian Black Funnel Web ??

Myself a spider enthusiast !!!

This... I just made a comment about this a few minutes back. Nothing about who runs the company, whats their credentials, whether they are Phd or not ?. Just give us $120 and we will send you a piece of paper from a 30 day old company saying you know AI. Woopteedoooo

I have a comment about the student pricing of Office. Its $79.99 for a 4 years subscription. Don't you think its better for students to have something like a $20 per year subscription with an auto-renewal option.

I mean we survive on Ramen and cheese. It's a little but steep to pay for 4 years worth of office at one go. :-)

Echoing a concern shared by a lot of other users, why will any organization trust your certification when you are just two academic RECENT graduates who don't have the software development experience, machine learning experience or system design experience needed for AI.

There is absolutely no information on who runs this company on the website, neither your names nor your credentials in the "about" section. Have you guys considered going to grad school in one of the top meccas of AI learning such as Stanford/MIT CSAIL/UW, publishing papers in top journals like IJCAI/NIPS/AISTATS before you start certifying other people ??

Who are the people who would you like to certify you that you know AI ? Perhaps G Hinton, Yan Lecunn or Andrew Ng. Whats common with all these people ? They have pushed the boundaries of ai by expanding the state of the art.

It is true that a Phd is not a precursor to being a significant AI practitioner. That said, wouldn't it be important that someone who is certifying you should themselves know their stuff. An academic Phd is a guarantee that the person atleast knows the state of the art and has made some effforts to push the envelope.
