I'm pretty sure that him being an ex-president is a better known fact. But still, him being the first and only criminal ex-president is pretty remarkable. Keep it in the first sentence!
You might have a point with this one. In fact, there are a ton of private companies already successfully running public transport systems. I think most people (myself included) just wouldn't trust a company like Uber for this kind of job. I guess in the meantime we can be happy for (potentially) more bus routes but still weary.
Sounds like a cool project! I have some questions just out of curiosity.
What type of model are you considering? Would it potentially fit in mobile devices? Would love to open an app or smth after meeting a random cat in the street to estimate its age lol.
How many recordings are you planning to work with? I don't have experience with audio but with NLP and many other domains NNs require huge amounts of data to work correctly. What are you thinking to mitigate this issue?
Do you plan to open-source the model or notify us again when its ready somehow?
Good luck with the project! My cats very rarely meow but if I get to record them I'll send it to ya.
Internationall, it's a known fact. Of course the current goverment will try to deny it but in some (many) years in a different political context they might acknowledge it... Guess we'll see.
As long as no socks are involved you're good.
