Volunteering to support AI research • r/artificial

I'm unemployed right now and quite a dedicated fan of AI and the singularity. So, I was thinking if there are any places where they'd take volunteers to help out with menial tasks so the geniuses can focus on their research? Yeah it's a long shot but I just thought why not write on reddit and let myself get trolled. But if anyone knows of places where it would be possible to do it, that would be amazing as it would give my life so much purpose to be involved in bringing about the AI revolution.
