Numerai
Numerai takes data sets and makes them publicly available. We then invite data scientists to build AI models based on these data sets. People submit predictions based on the models they've run and our hedge fund makes investment decisions using the best models. We're like a hedge fund powered by Kaggle competitions.
The data sets are often very sensitive so we first obfuscate the data, using sophisticated encryption techniques. When you're building an AI model on top of these data datasets, you're looking for correlations without knowing what most of the dataset actually is.
