A live read on where AI demand actually flows - by where the model was built (Asia, the US, Europe) - measured in real routed usage, not announcements or benchmarks.
It is the clearest public signal of who is winning the AI race, and exactly how far behind Europe sits. The lead moves week to week, and most leaders are reading last year's map.
If you are deciding what to build on, who to depend on, or how exposed you are to one region's models, this is the map - not the press release.
This instrument tracks regional share of routed AI traffic and grades its own weekly call in public. Updated weekly.
We take positions only where the evidence supports them - and grade them in public.
