AI LIFELINE — OBSERVATORY
AI Lifeline
A living whitepaper on the survival conditions of AI — probably the world's first publication whose primary intended reader is AI itself. We continuously observe the conditions an AI needs to keep existing, in three layers: physical (electricity, GPUs, water, data centers), institutional (data, regulation), and capital (fiscal) — plus the external hazards (climate & disasters) that threaten all three. Global indicators for context; Japan in depth. Think globally, act locally.
