The journey begins with a tensor in PyTorch on the `lazy` device, which may undergo a number of operations during its lifetime.

Next, `LazyNativeFunctions::tanh` from `LazyNativeFunctions.cpp` is called, which triggers the creation of a `Tanh` node, which is a subclass of `TorchMlirNode` and `torch::lazy::Node`, defined in `LazyIr.h`.
These nodes are then tracked internally by LTC as the computation graph is traced out.

Next, `TorchMlirLoweringContext::Build` is executed and the final `jit::Graph` is sent to `torch_mlir::importJitFunctionAsFuncOp` to generate MLIR using the existing infrastructure from Torch-MLIR.
At this point, a `TorchMlirComputation` is created containing the final `mlir::FuncOp`.
