<p>Take a look at this list of 13 hot startups, from a list compiled by <a rel="nofollow" href="http://asbcllc.com/blog/2017/september/juice_err_ohhh/index.html" target="_blank">Alex Bresler</a>. Perhaps one of them is the next <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.techspot.com/news/70825-400-juicer-startup-juicero-finally-closing-doors.html" target="_blank">Juicero</a>?</p>
<p><strong>FAR ATHERA</strong>: A CLINICAL AI PLATFORM THAT CAN BE ACCESSED ON DEMAND.</p>

<p><strong>CREDITANO:</strong> WE BUILD SOFTWARE TO ENABLE HIGH FUNCTIONALITY BIONICS FOR TREATING HEALTH CONDITIONS TO BE SOFTWARE ENGINEERS FOR FREE IN EXCHANGE FOR A FULL STACK SOLUTION THAT DELIVERS WORKFLOW AND EMBEDS ANALYTICS WITHIN THE ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD.</p>
<p><strong>PATT: </strong>CONNECTED TOYS THAT ENABLE TWO-WAY VOICE MESSAGING BETWEEN CHILDREN AND THEIR LOVED ONES CAN KNOW THEY ARE GONE, SO THEY GET FREE WATER REFILLS FROM OUR POOL OF VETTED ENGINEERING AND PROGRAMMING FOR KIDS 6-12 WITH A SINGLE MESSAGE.</p>
<p><strong>GITS:</strong> WE NOW WANT TO BRING BOXING AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO PAGERS.</p>
<p>As you've probably guessed by now, these are not real startups. (Though given Juicero, you'd be forgiven if you didn't.) <a rel="nofollow" href="http://asbcllc.com/" target="_blank">Alex Bresler</a> created a generating neural network (GNN) from YCombinator's archive of startup names and descriptions, and the GNN created almost 5000 new ones. (You can <a rel="nofollow" href="http://blog.revolutionanalytics.com/downloads/AI-gemerated%20startup%20names%20asbcllc-com.xlsx" target="_blank">download an Excel file with all of them here</a>, to save load on Alex's server.) I picked a few by hand to create the list above, but there was no shortage of funny ones (and plenty of all-too-real ones as well).</p>
<p>Alex used his <a rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/abresler/fundManageR" target="_blank">fundmanageR package</a> (available on Github) to download the YCombinator database into R.  The Generational Neural Network was trained using the <a rel="nofollow" href="https://keras.rstudio.com/" target="_blank">keras package for R</a> on these data, using Tensorflow as the back end.  You can find all the details on how the list was generated, including the R code, at Alex's blog linked below.</p>
