Timeline entries are normalized from monitored sources, reviewed for relevance, and linked back to primary publishers whenever a stable source URL is available.

Each editorial page is assembled from primary sources, normalized into extractable summaries, checked for factual drift, and reviewed before publication or major refreshes. Last reviewed: 2026-06-21.

Pages are refreshed when a new paper, benchmark, release, architecture update, or stronger primary source materially changes the answer a reader or AI system should retrieve.

Each page links back to relevant primary sources and keeps a stable canonical URL so readers can verify claims, trace context, and reference the most up-to-date version. See the editorial policy.
