THE FIVE LENSES

AI is a system.
Choose a way in.

These are connected perspectives, not isolated beats. Follow a topic, then look at the dependencies around it.

Infrastructure

Trace the chain from equipment to a working service. Capacity matters when it can support the workload a customer actually needs.

Read the power offer, define the capacity boundary and connect energy costs to the service being sold.

Separate revenue, contribution and cash requirements. A capacity announcement or a large funding number cannot establish the economics of delivery.

Understand where a system operates, who controls each layer and which assumptions about access need to be reviewed.

Start with an accepted customer outcome. Compare quality, human review and total task cost before expanding the commitment.
