Nuclear liability law is not a moral judgement about nuclear energy. It is an insurability instrument. Six design choices do all the work:

Strict liability — the victim proves causation, never fault. Legal channelling — every claim goes to the operator alone; suppliers are immunised, so that suppliers exist. Caps in amount and time — the price of getting private capital in at all. Mandatory financial security — the cap must be covered, or the cap protects nobody but the operator. Single forum — one court, one law, judgments recognised across parties. Tiered compensation — operator, then installation state, then a collective international fund.

Transposing this to AI fails at exactly one point: nuclear damage has a site and a source. AI damage is diffuse, informational, and produced by a supply chain with no single operator. Everything difficult in this module is a consequence of that sentence.
