How often is the AI incident data updated?

Weekly. The AI Incident Database publishes a new export every Monday; our refresh workflow imports it on Tuesday and shows the snapshot date on every page.

Does this page include the full incident reports?

No. Report texts are excluded from the CC BY-SA licence, so only metadata and classifications are shown; every row links to the original incident record.
