// AI GRANT APPLICATION
// DEMO 1 OF 2
fearing that you might change the content of ai grant page next year, we took the liberty to archive it here to keep coming back to it should we fail this time
also, thank you for writing it the way that you did — if what you wrote was not simple, clear, inspiring, fun, and inviting, we might not have had the courage to apply
okay, time to answer you questions now
and share demo 1 of 2 😃
WHAT IS A VERY SHORT SUMMARY OF YOUR PRODUCT?
please allow us to rephrase that question and answer in terms of
- our `end state`
- and our `experimental path`
what is your end state?
nine oscar-worthy movies, made differently
what is the experimental path you are taking to reach that end state?
for every discipline that goes into making oscar worthy movies, we are
- developing new creative workflows
- building useful ai-native tools for those workflows
- and bringing it all together to tell stories that are coherent, refined, and emotionally rich ... stories that touch the infinitely unique heart of every human... stories that genuinely connect , engage, move, unlock, resonate, entertain, inspire, leave an imprint, or bring about a catharsis
OUR END STATE == PRODUCT
OUR EXPERIMENTAL PATH == PRODUCT
OTHERRR USEFUL THINGS == BONUS BY-PRODUCTS
our primary product is the combination of our end state and our experimental path, other useful things that emerge along the way will be a welcome bonus, but they may or may not get our full attention
things like ...
NOTE: extra R's in the heading of this section is our homage to the movie RRR; the same rrrepeating R's are also a hidden symbolism for multiple by-prrroducts that might get created as we work towards our end state; and those R's are also a reminderrr for us to train ai-models that can interpret symbolism used in movies and generate some hidden symbolisms too (but without calling attention to them like we are doing in this note)

iteration 1 of 3141(why nine)
What is your team name or company name?
you can call us `simple and audacious Inc` which btw is not an ai generated name but some other parts of this submission were maybe inspired by ai a little bi— okay, more on that in a bit :proud-also-conflicted-also-happy-sad-emoji:
How experienced are you with ai?
some of us friends started tinkering with ai just a couple of weeks ago, and are already so blown away, that we can't think of anything else, or even sleep well at night anymore 🥴
Disclaimer
"simple and audacious inc." is just a temporary name that we are borrowing from a good friend's website; we will change it to a reasonable company name soon; and hopefully will pick something that works well for brand building? unique socials? search results? taxes? spell checkers?
