Mapping Complexity for Decision Intelligence: The MountainSpirit.AI Six Layers Framework™
Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a technology—it is the defining infrastructure of the 21st century. Yet, for many leaders, the ecosystem remains fragmented and difficult to navigate. In this video, we introduce the MountainSpirit.AI Six Layers Framework™—a proprietary strategic model designed to provide clarity from complexity. We move beyond the hype to map the entire AI ecosystem from "Silicon to the State." What You Will Learn: This framework organizes the global AI landscape into six interconnected layers, explaining how value is created, where power resides, and how influence flows: Layer 1: Infrastructure – The physical foundation of compute, energy, and connectivity. Layer 2: Models & Platforms – The intelligence core where computation becomes cognition. Layer 3: Applications – The interface where AI meets human workflow and creates value. Layer 4: Services – The human bridge of integration, assurance, and transformation. Layer 5: Influence & Discourse – The narrative layer that shapes public trust and ethics. Layer 6: The State – The sovereign layer of government policy, defense, and regulation. The Customer Orbit: We also explore the "Demand Side" of AI through the Customer Orbit. Discover how individuals, enterprises, and governments are not just passive users, but active participants who shape the trajectory of innovation through adoption and feedback. Who This Is For: This analysis is critical for Government Leaders, Industry Executives, Defense Strategists, and Investors who need a systems-level view to anticipate risk and identify opportunity.
