What you'll learn
The live teardown: read Apple in 20 minutes
Watch the Systems Intelligence Model (SIM) x-ray a $4T company in real time—why Siri stalls while the iPhone thrives.
The 4 questions that locate your real bottleneck
A repeatable audit you can run on any venture — and why the bottleneck is almost never where the noise is.
Where AI adds leverage—and where it just accelerates failure
Map AI to engine health, so you stop pouring models into the one part of your system that can't use them.
Walk out with a first-pass read of your own venture
Not theory. You'll leave with a structural diagnosis of your own company, started live in the session.

Why this topic matters
Everyone's auditing their AI tools. Almost no one audits the system those tools run inside — which is why MIT found 95% of AI pilots stall before they scale. The failure isn't the model; it's the architecture underneath. This session hands you the 20-minute method to see it — the same SIM lens that reads Apple, Theranos, and your own venture identically.
