Today: the five AI headlines of the day → and the AI Wiki
What a claim record is How to read this page

One statement, bounded on purpose

The headline is a single claim that a named source supports. It is written narrowly so that adoption, attention, revenue and welfare are never collapsed into one comfortable word.

The three sections below the fold

What this does not establish is the boundary of the evidence. Counterevidence & uncertainty is what argues the other way. What would change the reading is the observation that would move it. A record missing any of the three is incomplete, not merely brief.

Primary routes are checkable

Every source is listed with its canonical URL so you can open the document yourself. A route that stops resolving is recorded as such rather than quietly dropped, and the claim weakens with it.

MWITA-PCR-2026-012 · Evidence B · P1

After a five-month peanut-butter recall, post-crisis advertising accelerated first repurchase for the stronger Kraft brand but not the weaker Eta brand; observed recovery depended on pre-crisis loyalty, familiarity and brand strength rather than communication alone.

What this does not establish

One severe food-safety event with two related brands does not identify a universal advertising recovery effect, isolate creative or earned-media content, or measure trust, search, sentiment and market value directly.

Counterevidence & uncertainty

Paid communication was effective for the already stronger brand and null for the weaker one, so heavier post-crisis communication cannot be assumed to compensate for weak pre-crisis equity.

What would change the reading

Track replication, revised records, denominators, confidence intervals, channel changes and realized behavioral or commercial outcomes.
