The numbers are stated judgments. The record began on 15 October 2026 with starting confidences that a model set as the average of five separate readings, from its general knowledge and up to ten developments for each assessment first reported in the three weeks before, after a second model had checked the developments the readings relied on, and a published rule has made every change since. They are not measured probabilities. The question and the rule are fixed before the record begins, and each change shows its evidence and its reasons. The rule and what is not claimed are on the method page.

Through 2027, Cohere keeps growing by selling secure, private AI to large organizations and governments, rather than by competing to build the most capable models.
Status in the latest daily state (15 October 2026): Holds. The alternative is the main assessment's rival: the two cannot both be right. The thesis holds when the main assessment stands at 60 per cent or more, the condition it rests on at 50 per cent or more, the alternative below 50 per cent, and no recent change has moved toward the alternative. It is inverted when the main assessment falls below 40 per cent, when the alternative is more likely than the main assessment, or when several recent changes have moved toward the alternative. Otherwise it is strained.
