I think it might be worth starting with pure mechanical simple goods, and working from there? E.g. Specialised bbq tongs might be an easier entry point, allow you to build up the machinery, drills, laser cutters, mould injection equipment,

Agree. I think every camera manufacturer should implement auto blur on photos (legislate it). Then an opt-in system unblurs the faces of the people that approve. (Or just replace the faces with AI random faces instead of blur) Point being,
