Checkpoint indicator catalog

Status: v0.1 (minimal, for setup runs). ASSEMBLY-WP-0010-T01 extends it to full sensor bundles for all stocks (metrics/MetricsCatalog.md).

Jurisdictions: US, EU (with Germany where available), Argentina (the owner's hypotheses: the EU lags, Argentina may thrive). Add others only with a reason.

Mapping caveat: these indicators are proxies. None of them equals the model quantity. Band positions are judged from several proxies together, never from one.

Light checkpoint: adoption, investment, sentiment, legislation

# Indicator Jurisdiction Primary source Model quantity (proxy for)
L1 Share of firms using AI to produce goods or services US U.S. Census Bureau, Business Trends and Outlook Survey (BTOS) K_Ω adoption breadth
L2 Share of enterprises using AI technologies EU, DE Eurostat, ICT usage in enterprises (AI module) K_Ω adoption breadth
L3 AI use by firms or workers AR INDEC / national ICT surveys, or OECD / IDB regional data K_Ω adoption breadth
L4 Share of tasks or conversations by occupation; automation vs. augmentation global, per country where published Anthropic Economic Index; comparable usage indices K_Ω task share, automation share
L5 AI-related investment (data-center capex, information-processing equipment) as share of GDP or of GDP growth US, EU BEA; Fed / central bank notes; company capex guidance organism investment aO
L6 Public sentiment toward AI (benefit vs. harm, trust) US, EU, AR Pew Research; Eurobarometer; Edelman Trust Barometer; Latinobarómetro sentiment Σ
L7 AI legislation milestones since the last checkpoint US (federal and state), EU (AI Act implementation), AR official journals; legislative trackers legislation levers (permissiveness, m, expl)
