The substrate-layer position for tracing credit and causality in autonomous AI systems.

As AI agents act at scale, knowing who or what caused an outcome becomes a first-order problem — this is the coordinate for the systems that solve it.

Why this is canonical

'Attribution' is an established technical and legal term — in machine learning it denotes the assignment of credit to model inputs; in multi-agent settings it extends to tracing which agent or action produced an outcome. 'Autonomous' forces the harder, more urgent version of the problem: attribution when no human is in the loop. The .ai TLD anchors it to the era where that problem is most acute.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

AI governance and auditability
Attribution infrastructure for regulated environments where decisions made by autonomous agents must be traceable to a specific system, action, or data source.
AI governance platforms, compliance tooling builders
Multi-agent causal tracing
In pipelines where many agents collaborate, determining which agent's action produced a given output — critical for debugging, liability, and improvement loops.
Agentic infrastructure and orchestration platform builders
