> A practical, evidence-led guide to deciding where AI is useful, how to measure it, and how to implement bounded systems.

Use this curated index to choose a generated Markdown mirror. The linked canonical HTML pages remain the complete source corpus; this file is a concise route guide, not a content mirror. Claims, sources, dates and interactive details belong to the canonical HTML linked from each mirror.

## Starting points

- [AI usefulness, economics and implementation](https://isaiuseful.com/index.html.md): The main argument about practical AI value alongside uncertain supplier profits, infrastructure returns and valuations.
- [Evidence](https://isaiuseful.com/evidence.html.md): Controlled studies, field evidence, public systems and negative results, with limits on what each claim shows.
- [Benchmarks](https://isaiuseful.com/benchmarks.html.md): Searchable benchmark and leaderboard routes for economic outcomes, agents, coding, reasoning, multimodal systems, safety and efficiency.
- [Use cases](https://isaiuseful.com/use-cases.html.md): Source-linked AI workflows and deployments across software, research, operations, customer work, education, healthcare and science.
- [Adoption](https://isaiuseful.com/adoption.html.md): A five-stage adoption model, accessible global overview, organizational evidence and platform signals.
- [Investors](https://isaiuseful.com/investors.html.md): A neutral map of AI market layers, filings and thesis or counter-thesis tests.
