How the AI News Index is calculated
The AI News Index (0 to 100) measures how eventful the AI day was. It combines total story volume, the significance of each story (recency and how many independent sources covered it), and is scaled against a 30-day rolling baseline so a busy day reads high and a slow day reads low.
