ReferenceA living register of 26 documented public forecasts by other parties about AI capability, adoption, AGI and ASI timing, and risk. Each record uses the field set of docs/EVIDENCEFRAMEWORK.md section 2, plus the original…
ReferenceAn index of 120 foundational works (books, seminal papers and major reports) that support the encyclopedia, grouped by subject. Each row records who wrote the work, when and where it appeared, a persistent identifier, its…
ReferenceA living register of 55 historically or technically significant AI models and systems, from the 1958 perceptron to systems announced in September and October 2026. Each record states developer, source date, architecture family…
ReferenceThis is a dated chronology of artificial intelligence, from the logic and calculating machines of antiquity and the 17th century to October 2026. It covers foundational theory, papers, algorithms, hardware, model releases,…
MethodEvery substantive statement regarding AI capabilities, mathematical proofs, historical milestones, and future outlooks must be anchored to one of six evidential categories:
MethodArticles must be constructed from an identifiable body of authoritative evidence. Contributors must never draft narrative assertions from unassisted recall and then attempt to match citations after the fact.
MethodEvery article submitted or updated must be validated against the project's 15 Quality Dimensions (specified in docs/source/ENCYCLOPEDIABLUEPRINT.md, Section 19):
