Why this version exists

Certified into the record

The exact text we saved

This is the version exactly as it was saved, character for character. The SHA-256 hash below is a 64-character code worked out from that text. Run the same text through SHA-256 and you get the same code; change a single letter and the code comes out completely different. Each version also stores the previous version’s hash, which chains them together so no version can be swapped out quietly.

headline: AI slowdown calls justified but collapse of bubble may be more immediate threat | Heather Stewart
dek: Warnings about powerful and uncontrolled AI have dominated the headlines this past week.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page

Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1154 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
