# It Does What Now?
> A neutral, sourced timeline of artificial intelligence from January 2020 to the present. Every entry is a short brief (100–500 words) linked to primary sources.
It Does What Now? records the development of AI — models, funding, research, policy, safety incidents and cultural moments — as dated entries, grouped into narrative threads and cross-linked to the organisations, people and models involved. Entries are written in a neutral register with claims attributed to sources; nothing is published without a resolvable source URL. This file lists the most useful starting points; the complete indexes are /sitemap.xml and /rss.xml.
