After submitting an organisation application Google's admins will start evaluating the organisations based on the submitted ideas pages and decide which orgs will be accepted for the GSoC 2024.

>>
>> 1. For 2024 we have the concept of Small ~90 hour projects that are a standard 8 weeks long (you can extend them but we suggest not extending beyond 12 weeks for the small projects). Orgs aren't required to have small projects available but we would like to see some orgs try it out.
>>
>> 2. GSoC 2024 is looking to have *more AI/ML orgs* involved this year so please encourage *open source AI/ML projects* that you think are doing cool things to apply for GSoC 2024 (and they can use you as a reference).
>>
>> On this same note, if your org has AI/ML projects be sure to select *Artificial Intelligence* as one of your Categories (you can select 2). You also will likely want to add that into your '*Topics*' tags as well.
