Hey PH! I'm excited to be launching the 'Month to Master' app today. Here's the story... Eight months ago, on November 1, 2016, I challenged myself to learn one expert-level skill every month for a year. Since then, I’ve become a grandmaster of memory, learned to draw realistic portraits, solved a Rubik’s Cube in 17 seconds, landed a standing backflip, played a five-minute improvisational blues guitar solo, held a 30-minute conversation in a foreign language, and built a self-driving car. I've personally found these monthly challenges energizing, fulfilling, and joyful, and I hope to share these kinds of experiences with you through the app. The app features an artificially intelligent coach, who guides you through your entire monthly learning pursuit via friendly, informed conversation within the app. You can read more about the app and my project here: https://medium.com/@maxdeutsch/i... I'd love to hear your feedback on the app, as well as what you would most want from an "AI learning coach". Thanks!

You know what would be cool if this AI could recognize what you are working on and suggest the top resources for learning that subject so that you don't have to go looking for it on your own. Like YouTube videos, articles, etc

Damn. This looks incredible! Love the interface. One problem - when sending an invite message to my friend, it's difficult to add a name to send it to as the message is so long. Looking forward to starting tomorrow!

@libby_ayres Thanks, Libby! Good catch - I'll look into shortening the message a bit. Good luck with your challenge... Let me know how it goes!

Cool. I like a lot of the stuff you've done here. Always good to have an ambitious goal. I also like that You designed a conversational interface. This looks very similar to Google assistant. Just wondering if you have any ambitions of making this on Google assistant or some and NLU platform.

@sluiceandroid Thanks, Chad! Right now, I'm just focused on the standalone app, as it gives me more opportunities to layer in custom, non-chat-based content/features.

Hi @_maxdeutsch, just wanted to point out that your conversational UI has some UX flaws, for instance if you miss type your name, email or password it seems you are doomed forever. Other than that I can't seem to find where AI comes to play here. It seems pretty much like a chat bot interface that does not recognize natural language whatsoever, pretty bold statement in your own hunt. Nevertheless I do embace MVP mindset, and it seems like a good idea for habit formation, but the advert it seems to be a little stretch. Good luck!

@lucaslazaro Hey Lucas. You make a bunch of good points. As you point out, if you make a typo in v1, you are sadly "doomed forever" (if you contact me though, I can update certain values in the database). As far as the AI, right now I'm only using a bit of classification to serve up different scripts to different users. But the scripts themselves are pretty 'dumb'. (At least for now. I have some interesting stuff in the works for v2).
