Mission

Establish whether the constraint is how efficiently compute is converted into capability, rather than the supply of either data or compute.

ScopePublic evidence only. Third competing branch.

Branches

Branched fromScaling limits — the data-quality positionNeither of the first two branches accounts for reported efficiency gains at fixed data and fixed architecture. That is a third position and it deserves its own evidence.

Findings

No finding yet. A finding needs claims that survive independent replication and verification.
