Project turns 45,000 Enron emails into AI-generated wiki with cited facts

A team fed 45,047 emails from the Enron corpus into an AI system that produced 214 wiki-style pages on companies, regulators and banks Enron dealt with, totaling 49,401 facts each linked to a source email. The pages use timelines so facts that stopped being true, such as merger terms, automatically expire on the date the emails show they changed. The builders say no human edited any page or fact directly.
