Author here. Yes, Jeremy Howard and fast.ai was one of the inspirations for this! I'd actually be curious what he thinks of the project if he ever sees it.

He thinks it's really amazingly cool! :D

I'm so happy to hear that I had some part to play in inspiring such a marvellous project.

Oh wow!! Thanks!!

The beauty of HN is interactions like this.

Saw this for the first time, it's awesome, I love this place. I started coming here recently as a curious teenager :)

Reminds me of Standup Maths using colored spreadsheet cells to paint an image.
