There were just so many unknowns. Where to even start? On a whim, I visited Google and started a conversation with the builtin search AI language model. Just for ships ’n gills. My first question:
“What are the costs associated with living in cabins in Alaska? Imagine a former setnet site with multiple cabins. Daily tender runs.”
I had to start somewhere. After going back and forth a bit with Google’s AI, I was officially “more than curious.” The AI had been a useful tool. I decided to start a new conversation within the ChatGPT free platform to better archive the discussion. I fed the chatbot the transcript of the conversation I had with the other AI. Among the chatbot’s response was this one sentence summary of the vision that had formed in my previous discussion:
Restore a historic Kodiak fish camp into a seasonal off-grid creative campus where artists, educators, and other creatives live, work, and teach while helping preserve a unique piece of Alaska’s maritime heritage.
More ambitious than anything I had considered before. I asked about grants.
Yes. In fact, I think one of the biggest opportunities here is that your project sits at the intersection of multiple funding categories.
