Investigation priority from graph analysis: Google — investigate TPU-linked distribution moves and whether compute spend is being converted into ecosystem lock-in.
Graph target: Claude Code — investigate whether it is becoming vendor-neutral infrastructure o
Investigation priority from graph analysis: Claude Code — investigate whether it is becoming vendor-neutral infrastructure or an Anthropic-controlled choke point.

Emerging research direction identified: Selective Attack Architectures: The finding that strategic timing cuts safety by 28pp will spawn a new subfield of adversarial attacks that exploit temporal patterns in agent decision-making.
Investigate: Track MIT CSAIL faculty movements and funding — are key safety researchers leavi
Track MIT CSAIL faculty movements and funding — are key safety researchers leaving for industry? This would confirm the institutional retreat hypothesis.
Investigate: Investigate DeepSeek's FlashMemory paper details — is the 90% KV cache reduction
Investigate DeepSeek's FlashMemory paper details — is the 90% KV cache reduction reproducible, or is it benchmark-specific? This determines whether the Nvidia threat is real or theoretical.
