📈 AI Ecosystem Dynamics Through the Concept of Pace Layers
The article analyzes the AI stack through Stewart Brand's Pace Layers concept. The author divides components by their speed of change: from prompts (days) and models (years) to infrastructure and energy supply (decades).
🌍 This helps identify structural risks and "bottlenecks," such as data scarcity or delays in data center construction, which could slow AI progress.
👤 It helps explain why innovations face regulatory and energy barriers—technologies are evolving faster than society and infrastructure can adapt to them.
