How this tracker works

An entry appears when one of our stories covers a law, a bill, an executive order, a court ruling, a regulator’s move or an international agreement on AI. The date is the one the story gives; when a story gives none, it is the story’s own date. We add entries with each edition and correct them under the story when a fact changes.

Reusing this list: you may quote it with a link to this page. Facts belong to the sources each story cites.
