Chris, an ATM in the US is commonly referred to as a “cash machine” or “cashpoint” in the UK. I was hoping that my PUN would encourage you in the value of this article and the work you are doing. In essence, just like someone can walk up to a cashpoint, use it, and receive money, someone can walk up to your article use it and same themselves a lot of money...and time.
The video explanation was so spot on because it captures the multi-dimensional complexities of enterprise solution. (After I have had more time to digest this content, I will share more well formed ideas)
Thank you Owen. For some reason I thought you were referring to some kind of training course, or something! Glad this has given you value. Much more coming next week.
Thanks Chris! Excited for part 2. Process integrations are complex, would like to learn what your thoughts are for best practices.
Something I am researching myself is how AI tools will communicate across the business in a way that is cost efficient and makes business sense. In the example you mentioned between share point, email, and documentation: how to forecast the cloud, token, and misc costs. Are there ways to structure the communication between tools to lower costs or latency.
As businesses roll out AI projects, a lot of interesting questions are going to arise and different paths will be taken. Great to see you tackling these problems head on.
Hi David. Forecasting your costs is done through prototyping, it's what we do at Templonix. Testing before investing is best.
You can structure your architecture in a number of ways to reduce costs at the margin, like using different LLMs for different tasks due to lower token costs. In the end, your business case needs to stack up as opposed to trying to be lean - as with any IT system, the price is the price, it's just whether it delivers on was it was introduced to do.
The video in this newsletter might answer some of your questions if ROI is what're you're interested in.
This post should be at an ATM...because it was money!
What's an ATM Owen?!

Another eye opening newsletter and wake up call.
- What’s the cost?
If you can’t justify the spend, don’t put yourself in a career risk situation and build it regardless.
