Still needs more capex

This in-depth account of the stories of some of the people who have lost their jobs to AI is an absolute must-read. Amazing work as ever by @bcmerchant This is what the ‘democratization’ you hear so much about actually looks like https://t.co/J951pMLjwA

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

« Le combat de Trump contre les sciences du climat rend les universités frileuses et la peur est contagieuse. Dans les conseils d’administration, plus personne n’ose parler de climat, parce qu’il n’y a que des coups à prendre. » https://t.co/zCKKDpMVK5

Véhicule électrique : 11 % de l’énergie chargée est perdue avant même de rouler Quel scandale! Quand on sait qu'un moteur thermique n'en perdra que 70% en roulant. https://t.co/GuRmlxUznS

Xi Jinping has his DNA scrubbed from surfaces for fear of bioengineered weapons

The hydrogen bubble has burst. Nearly 60 major low-carbon H₂ projects have been cancelled or paused — far more capacity than the world has actually built. The reason? Fundamentals still don’t add up: • Demand isn’t there • Costs remain high • Infrastructure is missing

China built 3x as much solar cell production capacity in the past year as the rest of the world has in total.

Mark Zuckerberg is all but conceding that the metaverse is a big bust. WSJ: “Meta Plans to Shift Spending Away From the Metaverse— Mark Zuckerberg’s bet on immersive online worlds has lost the company more than $77 billion”

Study - AI is contaminating medical study with false "hallucinated" info. "across all six reviews, nearly one-fifth of the citations, 35 out of 176, were entirely fabricated. Of the 141 citations that corresponded to real publications, almost half contained at least one error"

China’s BEV trucks are rewriting the freight script. $63k–$92k USD for a purpose-built electric heavy truck is absurdly cheap — and every one is a rolling block of #lithium demand. BEVs are already ~22% of China’s heavy-truck sales, diesel sliding toward 50%. This isn’t “early

This is a real figure taken from a research article in a Nature journal. This is insane.

AI is kind of like Temu for thinking

Contrairement aux idées reçues, ce n’est pas grâce aux véhicules électriques, mais par le développement des trains à grande vitesse que les Chinois ont réussi à limiter leur consommation de pétrole https://t.co/i14svxccK4

As another example, imagine sending modern UHMWPE rope back in time. Imagine them finding a 2mm rope that can hold a ton, or a 10mm rope that can hold 16 tons. It would be so far beyond anything of their comprehension, it would actually be some mystical magic quest item.

Google's AI Overviews are stealing from recipe bloggers & vomiting out "recipe slop" like this😲 While Google's stock soars, the open web is in rapid decline

Tehran is on the brink of a severe water crisis. Multiple factors have left the city unprepared for the current drought, including population growth, mismanagement, and sanctions, but a rapidly warming climate is only adding to their problems. https://t.co/NNW10Cy1s4

AI offers huge potential for tackling global crises — from environmental to humanitarian and more - but its rapid growth also carries major environmental costs. Ahead of #UNEA7, where leaders will discuss emerging issues like AI, explore how we can balance its benefits with its
