INSIGHT

AI Infrastructure Needs

We are at a tiny fraction of the AI infrastructure that will eventually be demanded.
Human desires, not technological feasibility, will drive AI infrastructure growth.

INSIGHT

Learning and Anticipating with AI

AI can analyze the past to adjust current behavior and anticipate the future for the same purpose.
This "learning from the past and anticipating the future" paradigm is incredibly powerful.

INSIGHT

Current vs. Desired State

Every situation has a current and desired state, and AI can help bridge the gap.
AI can define the desired state and, most importantly, determine the actions needed to transition.
