### BUSINESS IDEA- 1. Building a consumer product that is a household name.

The company's objective is to transition into a product-focused company. The goal is to create a consumer product that becomes a household name, similar to their existing product which is already very popular. This shift is necessary to generate the revenue needed to fund their ambitious projects, particularly their work on AGI, which seems to be taking a backseat to this new consumer-oriented direction.

-BUSINESS IDEA- 1. Blockchain for IP protection of creators.

Story Protocol is a blockchain-based platform that aims to protect the intellectual property (IP) of creators.

The platform utilizes smart contracts, which are agreements embedded in the blockchain that automatically execute when certain conditions are met. Creators can use Story Protocol to set specific terms for how their work can be used, licensed, or remixed.

For instance, artists, publishers, or other creators can upload their work to Story Protocol and establish a smart contract that outlines the payment structure for using their IP.

This eliminates the need for intermediaries like lawyers or agencies, enabling direct and transparent transactions between creators and those who want to utilize their work.

Story Protocol represents a novel approach to addressing the ongoing struggle between creators and tech companies over IP rights, particularly in the age of generative AI. By providing a platform for creators to monetize their work directly, Story Protocol offers a potential solution to the challenges of IP protection in the digital realm.
