You do not need any experience with AI to setup Lucida. However, Lucida is fairly technical and requires an adept understanding of Linux.
Have you checked the repo?
https://github.com/claritylab/lucidaThis contains a tutorial. It takes some significant time (even with a fair amount of Linux experience) to set it up. Make sure you are running either Ubuntu 14.04 or 16.04.
It is planned for the future to make it significantly easier to use.
Thanks,
Mason.
