Self-Promotion and Solicitation

The DeepLearning.AI forum is a valuable resource for learning and sharing knowledge about AI. To maintain a focused and helpful environment, we ask that users limit self-promotion and solicitation.

Here are some guidelines:

Limited Allowed:

  • Companies:

  • You may create a single post introducing your company and its focus on AI. This post should be informative and relevant to the forum’s discussions. Include a link to your company website for further details.

  • You may not create multiple posts or reply to threads solely to promote your company.

  • Job Postings:

  • You may post relevant job openings in the designated “AI Discussions” forum section. With a “Careers” tagged to the post

Not Allowed:

  • Self-promotion in forum responses:

  • Users are not allowed to promote their consulting services, courses, or other ventures within forum responses. This disrupts the flow of conversation and can be seen as intrusive.

  • Create a post in the relevant category such as AI-Discussions with the relevant tags.

  • If your expertise is relevant to a specific topic, you can offer helpful advice but avoid directly soliciting the user.

  • Promoting other forums:

  • The DeepLearning.AI forum aims to be a central hub for AI discussions. Please refrain from inviting users to other online forums.

What to do instead:

  • Engage in discussions:

  • Share your knowledge and expertise by actively participating in relevant topics.

  • Build your reputation as a valuable member of the community.

  • Post resources:

  • If you have created resources like blog posts or articles related to AI, you can share them in relevant discussions, but avoid excessive self-promotion.

  • List yourself in the directory (if available):

  • Some forums offer a directory section for professionals. If available, utilize this space to showcase your expertise.

By following these guidelines, we can ensure the forum remains a productive and informative space for everyone.
