Ask HN: How do you start a research based company?
19 by mnky9800n | 10 comments on Hacker News.
Looking around hacker news it seems like everyone everywhere has their new AI company whose main goal is to develop some kind of new algorithm and then find customers later. Where do people get funding for such initiatives? I believe I'm a bit naive but it also seems like this could be a better way of doing research for the time being than continuing on in academia. But how do you get money to start a company whose goal is "make AI and worry about customers later"?
