How this archive stays current

A hosted worker checks this selected collection twice daily, at 06:00 and 18:00 UTC, with retries. Each record shows its last successful source check. Current workflow options lose their checked status after 24 hours or a known deadline. An inaccessible or conflicting source is marked for review.

Historical notices establish the event and its stated scope. A retired app can leave an API available; hosted retirement can leave downloadable weights. A domain redirect, an acquisition or a missing page alone does not prove death. Unknown dates stay unknown.

This is a selected collection, not a census of AI failures. Original notices sometimes disappear; those histories retain their corroboration and evidence limits. Source review is separate from hands-on product testing.
