FIELD DEFINITION / ISSUE 001
What is AI Live?
AI Live is a medium built from AI systems that keep generating, responding, or changing while people watch or participate. You enter a process in motion, not merely a page that once used AI.
The test is experiential
A qualifying experience has a stable public destination, an AI-driven process that continues during use, and a reason to enter at this moment. A visitor can watch, influence, play, create, co-create, or explore. Ordinary AI software landing pages, one-off generated files, recordings, waitlists, and link directories do not qualify.
AI Live is not the same as “available”
The category describes the medium. Operational status describes what a visitor can reach during a specific check. A show can be AI Live in concept while its feed is gated, degraded, or offline. Find AI Live therefore records page reachability, the actual experience surface, and the AI feedback loop separately.
How this guide checks a signal
- Reachability: does the expected product load at the expected domain?
- Experience surface: can a visitor see and enter the intended channel, world, feed, or controls?
- Generation loop: does an input or continuous process produce the expected output?
A successful request, title, preview image, player shell, or reconnect button cannot prove the final two layers. Every status carries an editorial check date and evidence note.
Why build a guide around it?
The vocabulary is unsettled and the experiences are scattered. A useful guide reduces uncertainty before a visitor commits attention: what will happen, what can I change, what gate will I meet, and what was actually verified? The goal is a confident launch to the original creator’s product, not keeping people trapped in a directory.
