Comparing AI to resources it highly depends on is a bit far fetched.

Only somewhat. I’d argue the internet could be considered a basic utility to function in the modern world, yet that just builds on electricity.
Those are all mutually dependent. Turn off the electric grid and close all the roads and see how long municipal water supplies last.
What resource isn't interdependent with at least one other resource?
Water depends on AI?
Yes. The water department uses it for planning and budgeting now.
Not really. Unless those resources are going to disappear?
