Frequently asked questions

What counts as a change worth reporting?

Three things, and only three: movement on the docket of a lawsuit already in the AI Lawsuit Database, a new announcement or report from a watched lab, vendor, or regulator, and a new research paper from a tracked organization. If none of those happened, the section says so. A quiet week is reported as a quiet week.

How is this assembled?

Automatically, from the same records that drive the AI Lawsuit Database and the AI Vendor News feed. The pipeline refreshes court dockets and reads its watched sources daily; this page reports the last seven days of that record. Nothing is rewritten and nothing is added by hand.

Is an item here verified?

A docket entry is a court record and is reported as filed. An announcement is the source’s own claim about itself, which is a lead, not evidence. Anything that graduates into the AI Governance Reference Library, the AI Tools Directory, or the AI Glossary is verified independently first.

How often does it update?

The underlying data refreshes every day, so the seven-day window moves forward daily and the page always reports the most recent week the data covers.

A quiet week is reported as a quiet week. Where a development touches a law, framework, or requirement, the authoritative treatment lives in the AI Governance Reference Library, and the full case record lives in the AI Lawsuit Database.
