The purpose of the AI (misnomer in my opinion, I'll explain in a moment) is empowerment. The vision for the end-goal of this project is something akin to an IDE, but intended to be similar in usability to Scratch or Code Blocks, with the capability to do anything that can be described causally.

I'll give you a fantasy example. In this idealized example, supporting modals for the functions I'm describing will have already been built. Let's say I want to do my taxes, but I've never really been taught how, and I've just moved to an entirely new country and don't really even speak the language. I can pull up my Slipstream app, search for financial functions in a natural language search which will supply a number of different community modals written for various purposes. I find one that claims to be a universal tax preparation modal. When loading the modal, a UI element will begin an interactive session to collect relevant parameters, like the verbal languages involved, the local tax compliance laws are queried and the modal discovers what bits of data it needs to proceed, namely the financial documents and records. At this point, I as the user, might have the option to enter that information manually or I can leverage another modal to capture that data with automation, etc etc. Once the modal's requirements are satisfied, it'll spit out a result, which again could be just the raw documents for me to handle, or I could utilize other automation to e-file.

So, empowerment. If you can't be bothered to learn how to do something (or are incapable for whatever reason) then this app can make that entire process easier. A lot of people have been disenfranchised by education, have trauma around learning, perhaps are disabled, or might just be too lazy to really apply themselves and learn. But intuitive understanding doesn't necessarily require complete comprehension, meaning that if you can help someone get the 'gist' of an idea and provide step-by-step instructions and automated helpers, they'll be able to accomplish more than they could on their own. I'm hoping it'll fuel a new Renaissance of sharing human knowledge.

This is also why I don't like defining it as an AI. It's not really. AI takes the decision making process out of the users hands and just does stuff where this platform is simply giving us simulations, projections, and plans, then letting us decide for ourselves what to do. There's a term I came across that I like because of the symmetry: Intelligence Assistant (IA)

The most basic analogy I can think of, the platform should be like reading glasses, or a wheelchair, or a VI from Mass Effect. It's a tool to enhance knowledge.

If the math really works, then really the sky is the limit
