The notion of "AI death" is far more nuanced than the simple cessation of a machine's function. It's not merely a broken circuit board or a failing hard drive; it encompasses a spectrum of scenarios, each with its own unique implications.

This book lays the groundwork for understanding this multifaceted phenomenon and establishes the central argument of this book: the urgent need for responsible AI lifecycle management.
