How people are selected and placed

Every entry requires a current, material connection to artificial intelligence and a credible public source.

  • Current Georgetown roles take precedence over every other category.
  • Georgetown alumni appear with alumni, even when they work in Washington.
  • DMV practitioners have a primary regional role and no stronger Georgetown placement.
  • Alumni spotlight treatment is reserved for substantive interviews or features published by Georgetown or a Georgetown-affiliated unit. It signals a deeper original source, not a ranking of importance.
  • The verification date records Hoyas.ai's latest source review, not the source's publication date.
