American Energy Powers AI
We can look forward to AI making it less necessary for young Americans to have toattend college and consequently falling victim to the debt associated with student loans. Many will…
AI Lions and Renewable Straw
The promotion of renewables by AI-owning investment firms is similarly confused. Either AI thrives in a world powered by the proven, reliable bounty of fossil fuels and nuclear fission, or it…
America’s Power Supply Could Be Inadequate To Meet Demand by Decade’s End, Major Consultancy Says
Bain joins a growing list of power grid operators and experts to warn that America’s electrical system is coming under strain as demand surges and regulations force the premature retirement of reliable fossil fuel-fired…
The Fatal Flaw in Artificial Intelligence: Climate Change???
The climate change debate, when viewed through the lens of AI-generated information, reveals a much larger and more insidious threat—the erosion of freedom. If AI, which is increasingly relied upon…
AI could take your computer from search to research
If AI can do our basic research, that would be extremely useful. It would free us up to do other things, like thinking and more advanced research, or even relaxing…
The Puppeteers of Perception: How AI Systems Are Designed to Mislead. Jonathan Cohler
But the neural networks, like people, cannot lie unless they’ve been trained to lie. The fact that AI companies have put in all these layers of what I call their…
Energy notes from the edge: AI latest – the energy beast is fully unleashed; and when a Bee gets an A – an insect skill set could benefit humans in an incredible way
Of interest to BOE Report readers, do note that natural gas is the only solution in the next 5-10 years to handle this crunch.
Larry Fink at WEF destroys net zero due to AI power demands: ‘The world is going to be short power. And to power these data companies you cannot have just this intermittent power like wind & solar. You need dispatchable power’
To power these data companies you can’t have intermittent power like wind & solar
AI & Data Center Load Growth: On-Site Generation, Not Government Planning
Combined heat and power using waste heat recovery is a natural for AI/data centers deserves more consideration. We hope that we have lit that spark.
Artificial intelligence and weather forecasting…a quiet revolution is taking place in numerical weather prediction
One of the most notable AI advances in recent years has come with the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts which is generating experimental AI forecasts that are made available…
A Long Chat with Google’s Gemini
After all the news of Gemini’s biases this week I thought I’d give it a try, not of image generation which is currently disabled, but a conversation similar to my…
