Data alone is just raw informationit doesn't tell you what matters, how things relate, or what to expect next. A model provides structured understanding by recognizing patterns, making predictions, and generalizing insights from past data to new situations. It compresses vast datasets into a compact form, filters out noise, and focuses on the signal, enabling real-time decision-making without reprocessing everything. Think of data as ingredients in a kitchen: without a recipe (the model), you don't know how to turn them into a cake. The model is what transforms scattered facts into actionable intelligence
