What's moving in AI ethics
Coverage volume across 8,500 tagged items from the last 90 days — each chart is one topic's daily item count, smoothed to a 7-day average. This measures how much our sources published, not how important a story is.

These charts count items our sources published that the classifier tagged — they track coverage volume, which is a proxy for attention, not for significance. A regulation that changes everything may produce three items; a product launch may produce forty. Spikes are a prompt to look closer, and every chart links to its topic's full feed so you can.
One more caveat while the site is young: our own source fleet is still growing — it roughly tripled in mid-July 2026 — so the sharp upticks and large percentage deltas near the right edge of these charts partly reflect our expanding coverage, not just the world's. The deltas become trustworthy as the fleet stabilizes; treat the early ones as directional at best.
