Frequently Asked Questions
What is The AI Timeline?
The AI Timeline is a running chronological feed of the most important things happening in artificial intelligence. It covers top headlines, model launches and updates, notable statements from AI leaders, moves by key players, and a weekly read on the industry mood. Entries appear newest first, and you can scroll back or search to explore the archive.
How often is the timeline updated?
We update the timeline several times a week, and daily during big weeks such as major model launches, safety incidents, or landmark policy announcements. The Live indicator at the top reflects our rolling coverage.
What counts as timeline-worthy?
Events that genuinely shift the AI landscape: frontier model releases, major policy and regulatory moves, significant research breakthroughs, notable statements from AI leaders, leadership changes at top labs, and moments that change public sentiment around AI.
Where does the information come from?
Every entry links to its source. We draw on reputable technology publications, official company announcements, research papers, and verified posts, interviews, and podcast appearances from the people involved.
Why is there no funding news here?
Funding rounds live in our dedicated AI Startup Funding Tracker. The timeline focuses on narratives, models, voices, key players, and sentiment instead, so the two pages complement each other.
