AI4LAM Awesome List

The AI4LAM Awesome List is an online list of resources of interest to the AI4LAM community. It features very brief descriptions and links to learning materials, software tools, projects, and various other resources relevant to the intersection of AI and (G)LAMs. The list is curated and maintained cooperatively by people in AI4LAM. Anyone can make suggestions for additions, changes, and improvements. 


We have new ways of contributing and making suggestions, so do check out our new page all about it!
