Our sourcing rule

We never publish a number we cannot trace. Each stat comes from a real article in our news archive, which itself links to the original reporting from publishers like Gartner, Stanford HAI, PwC, KPMG, and company investor relations pages. If a source retracts or updates a figure, we update or remove it here.
