Ask HN: What do you do with trained ML model from lobe.ai or teachablemachine?
1 points by anh_n 1917 days ago
There are a lot of no-code platforms which enable users training an AI model with ease. Most popular are for example https://www.lobe.ai or https://teachablemachine.withgoogle.com

1. I am curious who are main users of those platforms: experienced developer without ML knowledge or junior developer?

2. What do they do with the trained ML model? Just for fun in some hobby project or really used in production code?

3. It looks like (in my opinion) those platforms target beginner/junior developer. But if the output is only a model file, then it maybe too difficult for a beginner to write a software to use these trained models?

The context for my question: I am developing an app for home security which can detect human and animal. Technically it is possible to just swap the model file I used with the model file trained by the platforms named above and the user can use the app to detect any object in his interest. Is this "bring your own model" a good business idea? Love to hear what you think about it.
