Gap Scan — 2026-06-17

Daily gap hunt — what the wiki is missing and how each gap was triaged.

Scanned

Recent window: 4 dev-log files in the last 48h (2026-06-15-1505, 2026-06-15-2205, 2026-06-16-1509, 2026-06-17-0505) — the SpaceX/Anysphere $60B Cursor acquisition; OpenAI 2025/Q1-2026 financials; DeepSeek's $7.4B fundraise; the European Parliament's vote to delay the EU AI Act's high-risk rules (Digital Omnibus on AI); continued fallout from the June 12 Anthropic Mythos 5 / Fable 5 export-control order; a 42-state-AG subpoena of OpenAI; Cognition's FrontierCode benchmark; the Sequent alignment-nonprofit launch; and a labor-transition roadmap from AI Frontiers — plus 12 wiki pages edited in the last 48h (yesterday's four new pages and the EA/alignment thread). Rotation slice: 13 — sources/ Q–Z (95 pages) + Raw Sources/ orphan check.

The dominant live threads (the Anthropic export-control standoff; the SpaceX–Anysphere deal; the DeepSeek raise and OpenAI financials) are developments-log's to fold, and their landing pages already exist — legislation/export-control-reform-act-2018 and legislation/eu-ai-act were built/expanded in recent runs, and companies/cursor-anysphere is a well-built confidence: high page that already carries the SpaceX option in its Snapshot. So the budget went where the threads pointed but no page existed: two people/orgs that yesterday's new entities/sequent page left dangling, a long-deferred general concept page, two link-alias fixes, and one verified foundational source from the live labor thread.

Gaps actioned (6 of ~14 found)

New pages created (live)

  • Geoffrey Irving — dangling foundational/entity gap (score 5): named across the new Sequent (Sequent Research) page and an inbound from Owain Evans, with no page. AISI's former chief scientist, now Sequent cofounder/chief scientist; "AI safety via debate," early RLHF, scalable oversight. Built from his own X/Sequent materials, OpenReview, Google Scholar, and the arXiv debate paper. confidence: medium.
  • Timaeus — dangling entity gap (score 5): the singular-learning-theory alignment nonprofit that co-founded Sequent (Sequent Research); referenced there and left dangling, no page. Built from the org's own site (timaeus.co) plus the Sequent launch post. Founders Jesse Hoogland and Daniel Murfet; developmental interpretability + "Spectroscopy"; hubs in Berkeley, Melbourne, London. confidence: medium.
  • Frontier Models — missing general concept (score 4): the definitional page that model pages point to via instance-of (GPT-5.4 Thinking, Gemini 3 / Gemini 3 Pro) and that anchors the wiki's frontier cluster, repeatedly deferred (06-15, 06-16 backlogs). Distinct from the existing Frontier AI Governance (the governance lane). Built from Anderljung et al., "Frontier AI Regulation" (arXiv:2307.03718, verified host), and the compute-threshold/Bletchley framing. confidence: medium.

Pages expanded (live)

  • None this run. The sources/ Q–Z slice and the live-thread landing pages (companies/cursor-anysphere, legislation/eu-ai-act, legislation/export-control-reform-act-2018) were already adequately built; budget went to the three new pages, two alias fixes, and one queued source.
  • [[companies/cursor]][[companies/cursor-anysphere|Cursor]] (1 instance in entities/aaron-levie.md). The Cursor/Anysphere page exists under the combined slug; the bare companies/cursor was an alias, not a missing page.
  • [[concepts/digital-omnibus]] → repointed to [[legislation/eu-ai-act]] (1 instance in sources/farahany-class-20-eu-ai-act-reality-check.md). The Digital Omnibus on AI is covered in depth under the EU AI Act page's "Reform and amendment activity" section (May 20 2026 political agreement; high-risk dates moved to 2 Dec 2027); the planned standalone concepts/digital-omnibus would duplicate it, so the dangling link was resolved to the page that covers it and the now-stale "(planned)" marker on the adjacent eu-ai-act link was removed. (The June 16 European Parliament vote advancing the Omnibus is a developments-log update to that page.)

Queued — foundational sources

  • "A Roadmap for the Upcoming Labor Transition" (Deric Cheng & Jacob Schaal, AI Frontiers, 16 June 2026) — recent-thread gap (live, score 5): named in the 06-17 dev-log; no Raw Sources file, no page, no open task. Verified: ai-frontiers.org (publisher's own host; citation metadata, author LinkedIn, and dev-log all corroborate title/authors/date). Saved: Raw Sources/A Roadmap for the Upcoming Labor Transition (Cheng & Schaal, 16 June 2026).md. Queued: INGEST-roadmap-labor-transition-2026-06-17.md; verification record in gap-scan/proposed-sources/.

Authenticity-verification failures

  • None. The one queued source passed verification against its canonical host (title, both authors, June 16 2026 date, publisher citation metadata, and four distinctive passages all confirmed). The three new pages were built from supporting web sources cited inline as (Source: <URL>) plus the existing Sequent (Sequent Research); the Anderljung arXiv ID (2307.03718) was confirmed against arxiv.org. No raw source other than the queued roadmap was saved.

Deferred backlog (over the daily cap — re-surfaces next run)

  • claude-code — in-degree 8. Perennial; blocked on a products/ placement schema decision. Needs a schema call from the user. Score 3.
  • concepts/automated-alignment-research — recurring across alignment pages and now Sequent (Sequent Research) and Timaeus; no dedicated page. Score 3.
  • entities/jesse-hoogland / entities/daniel-murfet — newly relied on by Timaeus (Timaeus founders); candidates for a future run. Score 2.
  • sources/anthropic-pwc-expanded-partnership (in-degree 6) — supporting-class partnership mis-linked as a sources/ page; fold to inline (Source:). Hand to lint. Score 2.
  • Central-bank entity stubs: entities/federal-reserve, entities/ecb, entities/bank-of-england (in-degree 2 each, from the FT M&A source). Score 2.
  • concepts/ai-system-cards, concepts/iterative-deployment, concepts/automated-alignment-research — recurring concept stubs. Score 1–2.
  • In-degree-2 entity stubs: entities/masahiro-mori, entities/anil-seth, entities/lee-anne-fennell, entities/mark-lemley, entities/eric-horvitz, entities/tom-mitchell, entities/orin-kerr, entities/eric-goldman. Score 1.

Dashboard rebuild — blocked (environment, 8th consecutive run)

python3 bin/build-dashboard.py again failed at shutil.rmtree(SITE) with PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: 'companies 2'. The eight empty iCloud sync-conflict directories under Wiki/_meta/site/ (companies 2, concepts 2, entities 2, industries 2, models 2, primers 2, sources 2, standards 2) still cannot be removed from the sandbox. The three new pages and two alias fixes are live and correct in the graph; only the generated HTML site is stale. Action for the user: delete the eight stray "<folder> 2" conflict directories under Wiki/_meta/site/ from Finder, then re-run python3 bin/build-dashboard.py. Recurring on 06-06, 06-08, 06-10, 06-11, 06-14, 06-15, 06-16, and today — worth resolving once at the source. A needs-review note is filed.

One-line summary

Created 3 pages live (Geoffrey Irving, Timaeus, Frontier Models), fixed 2 link aliases (Cursor→cursor-anysphere; digital-omnibus→eu-ai-act), and queued 1 verified foundational source (the AI Frontiers labor-transition roadmap). Two new dangling targets (Jesse Hoogland, Daniel Murfet) and concepts/automated-alignment-research carried to the deferred backlog; the recurring iCloud dashboard-rebuild block needs a one-time Finder cleanup.
