Methodology

The flagship dataset. Rows mirror the public Signal Board feed exactly. Only published signals are included. Draft and archived work never enters a dataset. The brief and counterpoint columns are model-drafted prose reviewed by a human before publish. Add ?lens=market (or labor, geopolitics, regulatory, capability, society) to a download URL for a single-lens slice.

Schema

Column	Type	Definition
signal_id	text	Stable UUID; links to /signals/<id>.

summary	longtext	One-paragraph editorial summary.
significance	enum	high, medium, or low.
lenses	text	Audience lenses, joined with a semicolon: market, labor, geopolitics, regulatory, capability, society.
published_on	date	Editorial date (YYYY-MM-DD); drives feed order.
origin	enum	manual (curated by hand), pipeline (web discovery), or backfill (the one-time history since ChatGPT, published by hand).
claim_touches	text	Codes of the argument-map claims this development bears on, joined with a semicolon.
source_title	text	Title of the underlying article, when one is linked.
source_url	text	Link to the original article.
source_domain	text	Hostname of the source URL, www stripped.
brief_what_happened	longtext	The development itself, in plain prose.
brief_why_it_matters	longtext	The stakes: what this changes.
brief_whats_contested	longtext	Where reasonable readers still disagree.
counterpoint	longtext	A steelman of the contrary reading.
evidence_type	enum	What KIND of evidence this is, not what it is about: experiment (a controlled or field study with measured outcomes), statistics (primary figures reported by the party that holds them), survey (self-reported polling), projection (a forecast or estimate), announcement (a launch, deal, policy, or release with no measured outcome), analysis (commentary or secondary synthesis), or other. Null when unclassified.

Every published signal on the board: one tracked AI development per row, with its significance, audience lenses, touched claims, and the analyst brief (what happened, why it matters, what is contested) plus the counterpoint.
