    1. @bemmuApr 2013· in “Ask HN: What's the best technical talk you've heard?”

      I remember there being a better version of this, but Luis von Ahn's talk on "Human Computation" was great: this video

    2. @rawnlqJun 2015· in “Duolingo Raises $45M, Now Valued at $470M”

      Duolingo is started by Luis von Ahn who invented reCAPTCHA. He pioneered the field of human computation: this video . He can monetize this in a similar way. Crowd sourced translation service where the more advanced language learners translate books or something. It will be higher quality than google translate for sure.

    3. @alexpotatoApr 2019· in “Launch HN: Centaur Labs (YC W19) – Labeling Medical Images at Scale”

      I would think you could go a long way with just creating an ESP style game: [LINK] In this talk, the creator also goes into how they created a version to actually locate the key points in the image: this video
