AI Timeline Dataset

An open, dated, source-linked record of what artificial intelligence actually did between July 2025 and today. Every row is a single real-world event with a primary source attached.

3,296 events · 852 distinct publishers · 2025-07-01 to 2026-10-04

Maintained by Present of AI, a daily AI news site. Updated as the timeline grows.

Why this exists

Most AI datasets are benchmarks or model outputs. This one is a record of events: deployments, funding, regulation, incidents, launches, and failures, each dated and each carrying the URL of the source it came from.

It is built for people who want to answer questions like when did this actually start, who moved first, or how much of this quarter was robotics versus data centres, without re-reading a year of headlines.

Files

File Rows Description
data/ai-timeline.csv 3,296 Full dataset, CSV with header
data/ai-timeline.json 3,296 Same data as a JSON array

Schema

Column Type Description
id int Stable identifier; also the permalink slug
event_date date The day the event happened, not the day it was reported
realm enum virtual (software, models, chips), terrestrial (robotics, physical deployment, energy), space
title text One-line description of the event
summary text Short factual summary
actor text Primary organisation or person involved
ticker text Stock ticker where the actor is listed, else empty
materiality numeric 0-1 significance estimate; higher means more consequential
source_url url The primary source the event was extracted from
source_title text Title of that source document
publisher text Publisher of the source
permalink url The event's page on presentofai.com

Quick start

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv(
    "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/techa-ai/ai-timeline-dataset/main/data/ai-timeline.csv",
    parse_dates=["event_date"],
)

# The most consequential events of the last 90 days
recent = df[df.event_date > df.event_date.max() - pd.Timedelta(days=90)]
print(recent.nlargest(10, "materiality")[["event_date", "title", "actor"]])

# Monthly volume by realm
print(df.groupby([df.event_date.dt.to_period("M"), "realm"]).size().unstack(fill_value=0))
# No Python needed: how many events mention export controls
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/techa-ai/ai-timeline-dataset/main/data/ai-timeline.csv \
  | grep -ci "export control"

How the data is produced

Events are extracted from primary sources (company announcements, regulatory filings, research publications, and reporting), then dated to the day the event occurred. materiality is a model-assigned estimate of significance, useful for ranking but not a ground truth; treat it as a sort key, not a measurement.

Caveats

Read these before using the data in analysis.

  • Coverage is not complete. This is a curated timeline, not a census of all AI events. Recall is strongest for major English-language announcements and weakest for non-English sources and smaller regional deployments.
  • materiality is model-assigned, not human-rated or externally validated.
  • event_date is the event date, not the publication date. These differ, sometimes by weeks, when an event surfaces through a later filing.
  • Source links may rot. They were valid when recorded.
  • Summaries are model-written from the linked source. For anything load-bearing, read the source_url.

Licence

Data is released under CC BY 4.0. Use it freely, including commercially, with attribution to Present of AI.

Linked sources remain the property of their respective publishers; the source_url column points to them and no source text is redistributed here beyond short factual summaries.
