The primary goal is to establish a minimum viable product (MVP) that can effectively answer questions, albeit not necessarily all, and is accessible to a small group of users, including Chandler and myself. The MVP should include basic multimodal functionality, which is considered a critical element of the system. Another key aspect is the robustness of the deployment process, with the ideal scenario being an easy and cost-efficient method like one-click deployment, although initial manual setup may be acceptable. The final step is ensuring the MVP can effectively and powerfully query across different datasets, enhancing its utility as a tool for data exploration and thought.
