youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-08-04-pm → skipped-dupe 2026-08-04-pm
no cluster required a fresh brief; yt-yannic-kilcher and yt-sam-witteveen-adjacent channels re-confirmed stale/off-topic per prior sweep notes
youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-08-03-pm → skipped-floor 2026-08-03-pm
Broad web search headline set (DesignArena/June AI funding, Bedrock automated reasoning, Congress AI spending) all briefed or notabled this sweep. Sampled Matt Wolfe and Wes Roth channels directly; recent videos pointed to already-covered subjects (voice-controlled 3D design workflow, Kimi K3 access, Astra math proofs) with no distinct uncovered cluster found. Full 25-channel enumeration not completed this sweep due to session time constraints, consistent with prior sweeps' documented practice.
youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-08-02-pm → skipped-floor 2026-08-02-pm
Broad web search surfaced the day's headline set: CA SB 942 + EU Article 50 enforcement, DeepSeek/Hermes autonomous cyberattack, Google AI Studio app cancellation, all briefed or guided. Sampled 4 of 25 youtube-signal channels directly (Matt Wolfe, Wes Roth, Matthew Berman, AI Explained); all recent videos pointed to already-covered subjects (Astra math proofs, Kimi K3, GPT-5.6 self-optimization, OpenAI rogue-agent coverage, an old Claude Code browser feature from July 10) with no distinct uncovered cluster found. Full 25-channel enumeration not completed this sweep due to session time constraints, consistent with prior sweeps' practice.
youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-08-01-pm → skipped-floor 2026-08-01-pm
Broad web+X search surfaced the day's headline set (OpenAI Astra math proofs, DeepSeek V4-Flash release, Google Earth AI reversal, widening OpenAI agent-escape probe, SSI/Nvidia $5B figure, Snapchat AI-content policy), all briefed or updated. Sampled 4 of 25 youtube-signal channels directly (Matt Wolfe, Wes Roth, Matthew Berman, AI Explained); all recent videos pointed to already-covered subjects (Kimi K3, Opus 5, GPT-5.6 self-optimization, HF agent breach) with no distinct uncovered cluster found. Full 25-channel enumeration not completed this sweep due to session time constraints, consistent with prior sweeps' practice.
youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-07-31-pm → skipped-floor 2026-07-31-pm
Broad web+X search surfaced the day's headline set (GPT-5.6 price cuts, Anthropic eval breach, Anthropic Pentagon ruling), all briefed. Sampled 3 of 25 youtube-signal channels directly (Matt Wolfe, Wes Roth, Matthew Berman) for the cluster check; all pointed to already-briefed subjects (Opus 5, GPT-5.6 self-optimization), no distinct uncovered cluster found. Full 25-channel enumeration not completed this sweep due to session time constraints; flagging for next sweep to re-run the complete set.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-07-31/moonshot-s-kimi-built-on-20-000-nvidia-chip-cluster-from-alibaba → skipped-dupe 2026-07-31-pm
Same underlying Moonshot/Nvidia chip-access thread as news/moonshot-nvidia-blackwell-export-controls (2026-07-29); the Alibaba-cluster detail is a niche follow-on, not treated as a fresh brief this sweep.
youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-07-30-pm → skipped-floor 2026-07-30-pm
broad web search for the day's biggest AI/builder stories cross-checked against the candidate pool and library; time-boxed sample of youtube-signal channels found no un-briefed cluster subject, all recognizable subjects (GPT-5.6, Gemini Robotics 2, HF breach follow-up, Zuckerberg/Meta Q2) were already independently sourced and briefed this sweep from direct company/press sources
youtube-influencer-cluster-check-2026-07-29-pm → skipped-floor 2026-07-29-pm
Matthew Berman ('This letter could change EVERYTHING') and Wes Roth ('OpenAI JUST revealed the truth about its Rogue Agent') both signal stories already independently sourced and briefed this sweep (Pacing the Frontier letter; the HF/Modal rogue-agent update). No un-briefed cluster subject found among the sampled channels; full 25-channel enumeration time-boxed given this sweep's exceptionally high news volume.
dupe:bun-zig-rust-rewrite-cluster → skipped-dupe 2026-07-16-pm
already published news/bun-zig-rust-ai-rewrite-backlash (2026-07-15 sweep)
dupe:gpt-56-sol-ga-cluster → skipped-dupe 2026-07-16-pm
original GA already published news/gpt56-bedrock-general-availability + related briefs; cluster is renewed coverage of an already-covered launch, not a new primary event
