| What to watch | Why |
|---|---|
| NAIC Big Data & AI Working Group outputs | AI Systems Evaluation Tool pilot ends Sept 2026 → likely exam-standard rollout |
| Domiciliary and top-premium states' DOI bulletins | Adoption list is still growing; some states customize requirements |
| Colorado DOI algorithm/data-governance rulemaking | Bellwether for quantitative testing requirements spreading to other lines and states |
| SOA / CAS AI research index pages | New practical guides appear every few months |
| Model provider release notes | Model version changes can silently alter pipeline behavior; re-run evals on upgrade |
