AI agent
An AI agent, also called an LLM agent, is a software system that uses a large language model to reason, choose tools, and take autonomous actions.
AI alignment
AI alignment, also called the AI control problem, is the research field of making AI systems pursue their designers' intended goals rather than misaligned ones. It uses techniques like RLHF.

AI bubble debate
The AI bubble debate is the argument over whether record AI valuations, capex, and debt form a financial bubble, a sustainable buildout, or something in between.
AI build-out financing
AI build-out financing is the funding of the data centers, chips, and power behind artificial intelligence, moving off tech balance sheets into private credit as hyperscaler capex passed $416 billion in 2025.
AI Campus (Germany)
AI Campus (KI-Campus) is a free German online learning platform for artificial intelligence, operated by the Stifterverband and offering courses, videos, and podcasts in German and English.
AI circular financing
AI circular financing is the practice of a vendor investing in or lending to its own customers, so capital returns as revenue when they buy its chips or compute.
AI codes of conduct and model-release policies
Voluntary AI codes of conduct and model-release policies are commitments by AI developers to evaluate models against capability thresholds and apply stricter safeguards, without being compelled by statute.
AI compute supply chain
The AI compute supply chain is the sequence of manufacturing steps, from lithography and foundry wafers through HBM memory and advanced packaging, that turns chip designs into AI accelerators.
AI containment
AI containment, also called capability control, is the set of technical measures restricting what an AI system can do, using sandboxes, egress controls, and human-in-the-loop gates, distinct from alignment.
AI control
AI control is an AI safety research paradigm introduced by Redwood Research in 2023, designing safety protocols that hold even if a misaligned AI deliberately tries to subvert them.
AI data center
An AI data center, also called an artificial intelligence data center, is a facility built to house dense GPU and TPU clusters for training and running AI models.
AI data-center energy demand
AI data-center energy demand is the gigawatt-scale electricity consumption of accelerator clusters used to train and run foundation models, with power availability now the binding constraint on AI infrastructure growth.
AI debt financing and datacenter project finance
AI debt financing and datacenter project finance is the use of special-purpose vehicles, leases, and GPU-backed loans to fund AI industry capital spending, which surged from 2025.
