What drives it
Every domain lane produces data the data lane lacks: traces of agents at work, robot experience, lab results. The domains are suppliers to the fundamentals, not only users.
What breaks it
Model collapse if generated data is not checked, and data rights if the work belongs to someone else.
What to watch
Share of training data that is experience or synthetic rather than scraped text.
