Research group measuring AI compute and economics. It enters the corpus with the estimate that memory is nearly half the manufacturing cost of a B200, then publishes the autonomous time horizon behind issue 003’s 4.9-hour state of the art and the finding that global AI compute doubles every seven months. In the recursive-self-improvement strand it is the measurer rather than an actor: the rates against which the loop’s claims are checked.
