How this resolves

Resolves YES if the definition of Cambridge Dictionary's 2026 Word of the Year, as quoted in its official announcement on the Cambridge Dictionary blog, includes 'artificial intelligence', 'AI' or 'chatbot'. Resolves NO if it includes none of them. If several words are named, only the one called Word of the Year counts. Void if no 2026 word is announced by 31 December 2026. 2023's 'hallucinate' and 2025's 'parasocial' would both have been YES; 2024's 'manifest' would not. It was announced on 15 November 2023, 20 November 2024 and 18 November 2025.
