The interface and search could probably be solved without the use of AI. Seems like mostly an OCR problem. Both ElasticSearch and Sphinx are already really good, and I'm sure that there are other open source or commercial search engines available, or hire ex-Google engineers, Google doesn't seem interested in search anymore.
Newspapers have nearly identical newswire columns printed in 100+ newspapers, but with slightly different headlines and content. Or OCR breaking due to words being physically next to each other but in separate stories. The Newspapers.com search has fine OCR but is difficult and time consuming to use because of those issues. Seems like something "AI" could solve easily.
