What is changing now
Sustained change across independent sources — not a list of what was published. AI, and how it is moving other sectors.
Ranked on independent corroboration, breadth, persistence and how thinly a substantial subject is being reported — never on volume alone. The loudest topic does not win.

Outlets writing about something and people searching for it are different facts. The two are compared by rank within the tracked set, because a story count and a search index share no unit and subtracting them would be arithmetic on nothing. Search figures come from Google Trends, normalised against a shared anchor term so they are comparable between signals. Search volume counts how many people looked a term up — not what they think of it, and not why they searched.
Searched more than covered
People are looking these up faster than outlets are writing them. The gap a news-only reading cannot see.
Top searches we do not track: sensex nifty stock market, madhya pradesh vs jammu and kashmir, कर्मचारी भविष्य निधि, tommy paul, ಬಿಗ್ ಬಾಸ್ ಕನ್ನಡ, ವಾರ್ತೆ. Listed because a blind spot cannot be found by querying our own keywords — only by looking at what people search without reference to us. These are mostly sport and entertainment, which is the expected result for an AI-scoped tracker.
