The shared question

Distinct perspectives.
Connected evidence.

The Oracle series brings together public manuscripts that examine a shared case from distinct research perspectives. The finance paper studies capital commitments and financing risk; the technology paper considers adoption and hardware substitution; the geopolitics paper traces conditional scenarios affecting the cost of AI capital. Read each original document for its evidence, assumptions, scope and limitations.

  1. 01How do financing structures and long-lived commitments shape the economics of AI infrastructure?
  2. 02How does the pace of technology adoption interact with hardware substitution and asset impairment?
  3. 03How might energy and geopolitical scenarios transmit through inflation and the cost of capital?
