They said it was inevitable. We wrote it down.

240 dated predictions from 209 of the people building AI — quoted verbatim where a source exists, summarised where it does not, and graded only after the horizon passes. This is the ledger, not the prophecy.

The record so far

Twenty verdicts are in. Thirty-six clocks are still running.

Of 56 sourced predictions, 36 have not reached their horizon and are therefore not scored — not "probably right", not "likely wrong". The remaining 149 records are editorial summaries: our reading of a widely argued position with no primary citation yet, so they are marked unrated and excluded from every total below.

Method

The rule that does the work

No score for a horizon that has not elapsed. A moving deadline is a revision, not a new prediction.

Everything else follows from that: why two thirds of the sourced record is unevaluated, why an unfalsifiable claim is recorded but never counted, and why an editorial summary is labelled rather than graded.
